Ensure your WordPress site meets WCAG & AODA standards — protect, include, and grow your audience.
In Ontario, accessibility compliance is mandatory for many organizations.

We take a strategic approach to WordPress accessibility, making sure your site meets AODA and WCAG standards while supporting long-term business goals.
Inclusive, compliant, and optimized websites that meet AODA and WCAG 2.0 standards while strengthening user experience and SEO.

Our Accessibility Compliance package helps you avoid costly fines, reach more users, and improve overall site performance. We audit your WordPress site against AODA and WCAG 2.0 standards, identify issues, and implement the fixes that matter most. From alt text and contrast adjustments to navigation improvements and compliance reporting, we make sure your website is accessible, functional, and aligned with industry standards.
A detailed review of your website against WCAG 2.0 AA (and many 2.1) standards, identifying issues that could affect usability or compliance.
Implementation of required changes, from color contrast corrections and alt text updates to improved navigation and mobile accessibility.
Clear documentation outlining what was tested, what was fixed, and what compliance level your site has achieved — a record you can share internally or with regulators.
Optional monthly scans and spot checks to help keep your site compliant as you add new content, features, or updates.
In Ontario, businesses with 50 or more employees at any point in the year must make their websites meet WCAG 2.0 Level AA under the AODA. This applies even to seasonal businesses that temporarily exceed 50 staff. The law ensures websites are usable for people with disabilities, and non-compliance can lead to fines and reputational risk.
Accessibility improves usability for everyone and expands your potential audience. A compliant website helps people with visual, hearing, motor, or cognitive disabilities interact with your business online and demonstrates inclusivity.
WCAG 2.1 builds on 2.0 with additional requirements for mobile use, vision impairments, and cognitive accessibility. While Ontario currently enforces 2.0 Level AA, adopting 2.1 prepares your website for future standards and offers better user experiences.
An accessibility audit identifies where your site meets or falls short of WCAG standards. We provide clear reports, highlight issues, and outline the fixes needed to meet compliance.
Non-compliance can result in AODA penalties, lost business opportunities, and negative public perception. Beyond legal risks, inaccessible websites often frustrate users, leading to higher bounce rates and fewer conversions.
Yes, accessibility benefits all businesses even if legal requirements don’t apply yet. Many small businesses voluntarily adopt accessible practices to reach more clients, build trust, and avoid costly redesigns later.
The cost of website accessibility depends on the size of your site, existing issues, and the level of compliance required. For smaller sites, audits and fixes may be a few thousand dollars, while larger or complex sites may need more extensive investment. Most businesses find the long-term benefits — better SEO, broader audience reach, and legal peace of mind — outweigh the costs.
Small businesses with fewer than 50 employees are not legally required to meet WCAG 2.0 Level AA in Ontario, but accessibility is still strongly recommended. An accessible website improves user experience for all visitors, helps with SEO, and positions your business as inclusive and customer-focused.
