Visual accessibility
Adgensite makes your site accessible to an ever wider audience, including people with visual impairments:
THE BENEFITS OF ACCESSIBILITY
Why make your products and services accessible?
Thanks to the many plugins available in the Open Source world, it’s quick and easy to install. And virtually free. So why deprive yourself?
INCREASE USER SATISFACTION – By making your site increasingly accessible to as many people as possible, you potentially increase the number of customers for your services or products.
LIMIT ABANDONED SHOPPETS AND CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE – Abandoned shopping baskets are partly caused by misunderstandings in the sales tunnel, and clarity and legibility can sometimes avoid this pitfall. On the other hand, customer queries cost time and sometimes money, so it’s best to avoid raising them for lack of clarity.
ENLARGE YOUR CUSTOMERS – In France (source: Fédération des aveugles de France) , 1.7 million people have a sight problem: 207,000 blind people and 932,000 partially sighted people. Worldwide (source WHO), 253 million people are visually impaired: 36 million are blind and 217 million have moderate to severe visual impairment. Why deprive all these people of your products or services when it’s so easy to give them access?
IMPROVE YOUR IMAGE AND SET AN EXAMPLE – Unfortunately, there are so few websites that offer a version accessible to the visually impaired… This is your chance to change that!
RESPECT RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS – The United Nations (UN) has recognised digital accessibility as a human right. Since information is almost exclusively digital these days, this right has become fundamental to everyone’s participation.
APPLYING THE ACCESSIBILITY LAW IN FRANCE – The obligation to design accessible digital products, services, resources and environments still only applies to the public domain. If you are a public organisation or a contractor for a government organisation, your users, customers and employees are entitled to demand it.
