Importance of ADA-Compliant Websites for Businesses in Carson
Carson, an industrial and retail hub in Los Angeles County, requires ADA-compliant websites to serve its diverse population, including the 10% with disabilities (CDC). Businesses in logistics, retail, and dining rely on websites for customer engagement and e-commerce. An accessible website accommodates users with visual or auditory impairments, ensuring access via assistive technologies, boosting retention. California’s aggressive ADA lawsuit environment risks costly litigation for non-compliant businesses, especially small retailers. Compliance appeals to Carson’s multicultural and aging population, enhancing community trust. By prioritizing ADA compliance, Carson businesses avoid legal risks, foster inclusivity, and strengthen their market position in a diverse, working-class city.
WHAT IS WEBSITE ADA COMPLIANCE AND IS YOUR SITE ADA COMPLIANT?
We run into ADA issues quite often these days whether we walk into buildings that do not enable ramps for the handicapped, or businesses that do not have wheelchair-friendly restroom stalls, or websites with color contrast issues and no alternate text on images. As a result, the Americans with Disabilities Act, or ADA, was signed into law on July 26, 1990 by George W. Bush. It is a civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against individuals with all types of disabilities by employers. Technology forces us to think about accessibility in a broader context than even our physical environment. It’s not just whether a person requires a wheelchair. A person could be visually impaired or have a motor disability. A person could have slower internet or an older browser. With a graying population, some are not familiar with modern user interface (UI) pattern. Disabilities may include visual, auditory, physical, speech, mental and neurological disabilities. Adherence to web accessibility standards not only benefits the handicapped but all users. Website ADA compliance includes guidelines that take into consideration the needs of people with disabilities so they can navigate your site and get the information they need.

- Accessibility guidelines for websites are complex and subjective – The design rules are technical. It’s code! Most businesses are not tech companies!
- Accessibility can’t be automatically fixed – There’s no plugin or program to add accessibility to your website. Features have to be repaired or rebuilt altogether.
- Automated tests aren’t complete – A computer will find a list of unimportant errors in its design of almost any site. At the same time, this computer won’t find or understand the real roadblocks that users confront on the site.
