Non-ADA Compliant
"Accessibility Neglect"
Overview
The Core Concept
Digital exclusion.
- The Mistake: Building a website that relies entirely on mouse clicks (cannot be used with a keyboard) or has low contrast text.
- The Impact: You exclude ~15% of the global population.
Why It Matters
SEO: Google penalizes sites that aren't accessible.
Legal: High-profile lawsuits (e.g., Domino's Pizza) have set a precedent that websites must comply with ADA standards.
Market: Inclusive design often improves the experience for everyone, not just disabled users.
