How to Perform Quick Accessibility Audits

Livestream Replay
Description
The most common question regarding accessibility is, "How bad is a given site, and what's it going to take to fix it?" Most people would like to get at least a ballpark answer without spending $1,000. In this livestream, web accessibility pro Gen Herres will talk about how we use a quick audit to answer these common questions and move forward on solving accessibility issues.
- How accessible or inaccessible is a given website?
- How do you determine your major pain points?
- How do you identify which parts of your site are causing the most accessibility issues?
- How do you use this information to choose what direction to take to remediate the site?
