Andrew and Refael begin to unwrap ADA Compliance for US Sites

The Myth Of 15 Employee threshold

Your Web Site is now considered a place of public accommodations

Consequences of non-compliance with the ADA starting about $10,000, $20,000, $30,000 and going up from there

The ADA is a strict liability law, if you are not compliant, you are liable

It is estimated that there were 265,000 Demand Letters sent in 2020

You can be sued multiple times for the same ADA violation

The vast majority of people with Disabilities do not want to sue

Websites that are accessible can gain a huge amount of new business

Over 26 % of adults in the US live with a disability with 600 Billion of disposable income in the Disability Community

The mechanics of making your site accessible and ADA compliant

Not everyone with a Disability needs the same things changed to access your site

Some site design features can actually harm or kill someone with certain types of disabilities

accessiBe does not overwrite the work you have done for compliance or for SEO

Ai automatically creates an alt text for each image that may not have one

The Ai learns from hundreds of millions of page sessions each day

Why Your Site Needs To Be ADA Compliant Yesterday! In this Vlogcast, we discuss why if you offer a product or a service to the public in the US, your Site needs to be ADA compliant or face getting sued. With about 400,000 complaints estimated to be made this year, you could end up paying $10,000 and up. This is nothing to mess around with...

Basically, if you offer any product or service to the public in the US your site must be ADA compliant. Even if you a one-man or one-woman shop!

And we discuss why having 15 or more employees as the tripwire for compliance is a myth. Find out how to get your ADA AI tool, and then how to have it installed by us at no cost.
