Delivering a site that's compliant and compelling
Who says accessible websites have to be boring or ugly? With proper design and development, fully compliant websites can be just as interesting and inviting as non-compliant sites.
Besides, you really don't have a choice. Companies with non-compliant websites can face costly legal penalties. Target Stores and Southwest Airlines are two of the more publicized lawsuits, and you can be sure there are other watchdogs on the Internet, scanning for sites that do not meet accessibility standards. Why take the risk?
Adapting to standards, enhancing the user experience
PixelMEDIA is well versed in the area of accessibility, staying on top of the latest federal government (Section 508 compliant) and international standards (www.w3.org). We leverage new technology and best practices to build websites and application interfaces that accommodate the widest range of people—from those who are blind, colorblind, or deaf to individuals who have difficulty using a mouse and keyboard.
Few web development companies bring this level of awareness, understanding, and responsibility to website or application projects.
- We think accessibility from the start—PixelMEDIA's usability experts and information architects work with you at the outset to gather requirements and preferences for a more accessible website or interface.
- We offer accessible web/interface development—PixelMEDIA's web and application developers, collaborating with our visual designers, use the latest techniques in CSS layout, separating content from presentation and writing highly accessible code.
- We provide consultative services—PixelMEDIA's web accessibility experts can look at an existing website and identify features and components of the site that need to be enhanced to achieve maximum accessibility.
Latest U.S. Census Bureau figures estimate there are more than 50 million people with some type of disability. With PixelMEDIA, you're assured a website or application that supports their needs, while still maintaining a compelling look and feel that effectively conveys your unique brand.
