DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT & DELIVERY

Website Accessibility

We help organizations create more accessible, inclusive digital experiences

SunnyByte helps organizations improve website accessibility through thoughtful design, development, testing, and ongoing remediation.
Whether you are building a new website, redesigning an existing one, or addressing accessibility issues on a live site, we help identify barriers, prioritize improvements, and create a more usable experience for people with a wide range of abilities.
Our approach is practical and ongoing. Accessibility is not a one-time checklist — it is part of building and maintaining a healthy website.

Build a website that works for more people

Accessibility should start before launch

The best time to address accessibility is during planning, design, and development — not after the website is finished. We can review areas such as color contrast, typography, navigation, forms, interactive components, content hierarchy, focus states, responsive behavior, keyboard interaction, and overall component design patterns. Building accessibility into the process from the beginning is typically more efficient, more consistent, and easier to maintain than retrofitting it later.

Why website accessibility matters

Improving accessibility helps organizations serve more people effectively, reduce barriers to important content and actions, and create a more consistent experience across devices and abilities. It can also support broader accessibility goals, improve content structure and overall website quality, reduce risk, and make future development easier to manage. In many cases, accessibility improvements make the website better for everyone, not only users with disabilities.

When accessibility work makes sense

Website accessibility support may be a strong fit when:

  • Your organization is preparing for a redesign.
  • You have received accessibility complaints.
  • An automated scan has surfaced issues.
  • Your site has never been formally reviewed.
  • You are working toward WCAG conformance.
  • You need help prioritizing a large list of accessibility findings.
  • Third-party components or plugins are creating barriers.
  • Your internal team needs clearer accessibility guidance.
  • Accessibility needs to become part of ongoing website maintenance.

What website accessibility can include

Depending on your needs, our accessibility work can include:

Accessibility audits
WCAG-focused design review
Code remediation
Keyboard accessibility improvements
Screen reader support
Color contrast improvements
Form accessibility
Heading and content structure review
Image alt text guidance
Accessible navigation and menus
Modal, accordion, and interactive component remediation
Captioning and media accessibility guidance
Accessible PDF and document considerations
Accessibility QA during redesigns and new builds
Ongoing accessibility monitoring and remediation
Content editor guidance and training

Accessibility should start before launch

The best time to address accessibility is during planning, design, and development rather than after a website is finished. We review the details that shape how people actually use the site, including color contrast, typography, navigation, forms, interactive elements, content hierarchy, keyboard behavior, focus states, responsive layouts, and component patterns. Building accessibility in from the start creates a stronger, more consistent experience and helps avoid more difficult remediation later.

CASE STUDY

LAJHealth

Accessibility was built into LAJHealth’s broader website redesign, helping create a clearer, more inclusive experience for the many audiences the organization serves.

From remediation to ongoing support

Accessibility remediation without a full redesign

A full redesign is not always necessary. If your current site is working well, we can focus on correcting accessibility issues within the existing design and codebase — from keyboard navigation, forms, heading structure, contrast, focus states, and interactive components to semantic HTML, screen reader support, and navigation patterns. Remediation can also be phased based on severity, user impact, budget, and technical complexity.

Automated testing + manual review

Automated accessibility tools are useful, but they cannot catch every issue. We combine automated scans with hands-on testing, including keyboard navigation, screen reader review, form and interactive element checks, responsive and mobile testing, component-level QA, and regression testing after fixes. Together, these methods provide a much clearer picture of how accessible the website is in real-world use.

Ongoing accessibility support

Accessibility can change as your website evolves. New content, components, plugins, third-party tools, and design updates can introduce new issues over time, so we can incorporate accessibility into ongoing maintenance through recurring audits, scans, QA, remediation, content review, and editor guidance. The goal is to make accessibility part of normal website health rather than a one-time project.

Accessibility for content editors

Accessibility is not only a development responsibility. The way content is created and managed — including headings, link text, alt text, images, tables, documents, and formatting — can have a significant impact on accessibility. We can help establish practical standards and guidance so internal teams can maintain more accessible content over time.

Accessibility and third-party tools

Third-party tools can introduce accessibility issues even when the rest of a website is well built. We can evaluate forms, chat tools, scheduling platforms, maps, video players, ecommerce widgets, embedded applications, consent tools, plugins, and other third-party components to identify potential barriers. Where possible, we can recommend configuration changes, technical remediation, or more accessible alternatives.

Frequently asked questions

What is website accessibility?

Website accessibility means designing and developing websites so people with disabilities can navigate, understand, and interact with them effectively.

What accessibility standard does SunnyByte work toward?

Accessibility work is typically guided by WCAG standards, with the specific target level defined by the client’s requirements and project scope.

Can SunnyByte make an existing website more accessible?

Yes. We can audit and remediate existing websites without requiring a full redesign.

Are automated accessibility tools enough?

No. Automated tools are useful for identifying certain issues, but manual testing is still important for keyboard behavior, screen reader usability, forms, navigation, and interactive components.

Can accessibility be part of website maintenance?

Yes. Ongoing monitoring, testing, and remediation can be incorporated into a maintenance plan.

Can you guarantee ADA compliance?

We can design, develop, test, and remediate websites against recognized accessibility standards, but legal compliance determinations should ultimately be reviewed with qualified legal counsel.

Make accessibility part of better web development

Whether you are planning a new site, improving an existing one, or building a long-term accessibility program, SunnyByte can help create a more usable, inclusive, and maintainable website experience.
