  1. 5 Best Tips To Make Your WordPress Site More Accessible The world is full of different types of people having different abilities. Some are perfectly ok, the other has some sort of defects. Your potential customers lie among them so you need to be ready to cater to all groups of people.

  2. Of course, I don’t mean you should get in touch with them each time they need your service. Instead what you can do is make your website accessible for all types of people whether they are visually impaired, have issues in hearing or something similar. The result? This will allow you to reach out to a large number of users and get them converted into your customers. But the question is how to make your WordPress website more accessible? Well, in this blog, we have put together some helpful tips to improve the accessibility of your WordPress website. But before you get into the details, I would like to introduce you to a client-friendly ​web design company in Los Angeles - SFWP Experts​. Offering their services to 500+ business set ups around the world, this agency has achieved a milestone in consumer satisfaction in 2020. With that out of the way, let’s solely focus on the tips to make your website more accessible for all types of users. How To Improve WordPress Accessibility For Your Visitors? 1. Test The Accessibility of Your WordPress Website Before you start making changes to your site out of the blue in order to make it more accessible, it’s a good idea to check out how accessible it is at present.

  3. You can easily do this using a tool named Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool (WAVE). All you have to do is enter your website’s URL and hit the launch button. After the application has completed the evaluation, it will show you different color-based icons that represent different areas of your site that are ok, needs some improvement, or have errors. On clicking the desired icon you can acquire detailed information about what needs to be fixed or corrected. In case, you prefer an experienced person to get your website evaluated, professionals of our Los Angeles web design company can help. By reviewing and modifying WordPress websites for a long time, they have mastered the art of checking the website within minutes and finding out what’s wrong with it. 2. Select Color Schemes Sparingly The easiest way to set your website apart from the herd is to use a specific color scheme. But what if the visitors coming to your site are color blind or have limited sight? Of course, they won’t be able to get an actual view of your site. It’s quite difficult to see what’s written in the first image, right? And it’s so even when you might not have a visual disability. Now imagine what millions of people across the globe have to face when having color blindness. To help you balance the color of your WordPress website, we recommend you to use this tool - Contrast Checker:

  4. View the results and make changes to colors on your website accordingly. To get an idea of what color scheme will be suitable for your specific site, have a word with the representative of our Los Angeles web design company. ​Wordpress Developer experts with us, have several years of experience in identifying the color choices of users as well as visually appealing shades, so are the most suitable person to tell you that. 3. Choose An Accessibility-Ready WordPress Theme Going this way makes more sense if you want to avoid the hassle of having to fix accessibility issues from the very beginning. All you need to do is use the Features Filter option and check the accessibility-ready box in the WordPress repository to search such themes. Once you have done that, some great themes will display on screen that use accessible design. Rest assured, when you will select an accessibility ready theme for your WordPress website, it will be ready for your users as far as navigation, link styling, color schemes, and other things goes. Alternatively, you can also get hold of our Los Angeles web design company to make your site easy to use and easy to navigate. Past masters in our design department meticulously observe each element on your website first and then determine how to make them easily usable or consumable for visitors. 4. Add Alt Text To Images By doing this not only you boost your rankings in the search engine but alt text also allows search engine crawlers to understand your website in a

  5. better fashion. Eventually, that helps your site to be ranked in the most relevant search results. If that’s not enough, adding alt text to your images helps disabled people to have an enhanced user experience on your site when reading the images. Make sure your alt text is descriptive and include business-focussed keywords. Don’t know what keywords your website should rank for? Let us research and hand off the report to you. Optimizing your website for those keywords will definitely improve your search rankings, compelling you to work with our Los Angeles web design company every single time down the road. 5. Design The Form Fields Properly It’s enticing to put the form field labels in the field boxes in order to make it look well-organized. But do you know some screen readers can’t identify and read such labels? This makes it a bit difficult, if not impossible, for people using screen readers to see and fill up your form fields. This can cause loss in conversions as well as push you in the remote zone from the success point. So what’s the solution? Just place the form fields outside the boxes.
