It’s been a little while since we’ve talked about accessibility on the podcast and one area we haven’t covered at all to this point is specifically how to make accessible eCommerce websites.

Everything is more complex with eCommerce sites and accessibility, while complex even at the basic level, gets even trickier. 

So, to help understand all of this, accessibility expert Bet Hannon (CEO of accessicart.com) is on the show as we dive into:

• The very basics of accessibility
• Easy accessibility wins you can achieve on your sites
• The common accessibility traps for eCommerce sites
• The #1 accessibility culprit for restaurant websites
• Offering accessibility from the start of your projects

And more.

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed with accessibility - perhaps because it CAN be extremely robust but every time I speak with an expert in it, I’m reminded that the most important thing is to have the basics covered. So if you do everything we talk about in the first 10-15 minutes here, that’s a great start.

And while we do get into some of the accessibility penalties that have been circulating, I don’t want you to feel intimidated or scaled by web design as a whole. Accessibility is a lot like privacy and security in terms of the “rare events (aka lawsuits and penalties)” making the headlines.

The goal is simple, make websites as accessible to everyone as possible.

Build sites with that in mind and you’ll be far ahead of most other web designers and you’ll make the web a better, more user-friendly place for all.
