Web Accessibility for WordPress sites

The Web Accessibility tool (formerly called ‘Ally’) is a free, easy-to-use solution designed to improve web accessibility and make websites more inclusive for people with disabilities. It enhances websites with practical features like improved alt text for images, helping website owners meet accessibility guidelines such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). Web Accessibility works seamlessly across WordPress and Elementor, supporting screen readers, assistive technologies, and multiple web browsers.

Our goal is to help website owners reduce accessibility barriers during the creative process and deliver website design with accessibility built to benefit all users.

No tool, including Web Accessibility, can claim a website accessible solution guarantees full compliance with WCAG guidelines or what the ADA requires. Automated tools can scan web content and highlight many problems, but some issues, like whether images have meaningful descriptions, if video captions are correct, or if interactive elements are usable, require human review.

Web Accessibility helps website owners identify common barriers, organize them, and provide ways to fix them manually or with AI-powered suggestions. Achieving full compliance is a continuous process that involves testing across user agents, mobile devices, and assistive technologies.

The Accessibility Assistant is an evaluation tool that scans web pages for over 180 potential problems based on WCAG 2.1 AA success criteria. It organizes findings into categories and provides step-by-step guidance. Website owners and creators can fix problems themselves or apply AI suggestions, making web accessibility part of the normal creative process.

Oui. Vous pouvez réanalyser n'importe quelle page Web ou URL de site Web aussi souvent que nécessaire. Chaque nouvelle analyse met à jour les résultats afin de refléter votre contenu Web actuel et met en évidence les améliorations, aidant ainsi les propriétaires de sites Web à suivre les progrès en matière d'accessibilité Web et à maintenir des sites Web plus inclusifs.

AI fixes are smart, automated suggestions that help resolve accessibility barriers more efficiently. For example, the Accessibility Assistant can propose better alt text for images, suggestions for aria labels, and can provide fixes for any text or code. These automated authoring tools save time in the development process while leaving website owners in full control to edit or roll back changes.
