Designing Your Store for Accessibility

Accessibility = better for everyone. Basics:

Contrast

Text readable on background. WCAG guidelines. Tools exist to check.

Alt Text

Describe images. Helps screen readers. Helps SEO.

Keyboard Navigation

Can users tab through? Click without mouse? Essential for some.

Font Size

Minimum 16px body. Scalable. Don't lock users into tiny text.

Forms

Clear labels. Error messages. Success confirmation.

Why

More people can use your store. Legal requirement in some places. Often improves conversions for all.
