An accessible shop excludes no one and is more pleasant for everyone to use. At the same time accessibility is increasingly expected by law as well.
Why the effort pays off
About one in ten people depends on low barrier offers. Beyond that many improvements help all users, for example in poor light or on the go.
Where you can start
Even small measures have a big effect.
Sufficient contrast for texts
Meaningful alternative texts for images
Operability via keyboard
Clear labelling of form fields
Think about language
Simple, clear wording helps not only people with impairments but improves clarity for everyone.
Check regularly
Test your shop with keyboard and screen reader and gather feedback from real users. That way you find hurdles that are easily overlooked in everyday use.
Conclusion
Accessibility is not a one time project but an attitude. Anyone who takes it seriously gains satisfied customers and a clear conscience.
