<h3>Make Your Website Accessible with Accessibility Checker</h3>
<p>Equalize Digital&#8217;s Accessibility Checker provides accessibility error and warning notifications right on your post and/or page edit screen.</p>
<p>Accessibility Checker automatically scans your content each time you save a draft or hit publish, giving you real-time feedback on your post&#8217;s or page&#8217;s accessibility. Receive a visual overview of how your content stacks up against more than 40 different accessibility checks created to meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 success criteria.</p>
<p>For each error or warning flagged, Accessibility Checker lists the code that triggered the error or warning. Each item is identified as an error or warning depending upon its severity, so that you can prioritize your fixes. Thorough documentation is available to guide you on how to fix accessibility problems on your website and personalized accessibility remediation assistance and accessibility consulting is available if desired.</p>
<h3>Ensure Ongoing ADA, Section 508, AODA, &amp; WCAG Compliance</h3>
<p>For already accessible websites, Accessibility Checker is an excellent tool for ensuring ongoing compliance and accessibility.</p>
<p>The in-page tests help content managers and contributors confirm they have entered their content in an accessible manner. There&#8217;s no need to be an accessibility expert or memorize long lists of WCAG success criteria &#8211; Accessibility Checker provides an easy to understand accessibility checklist and reading level checks so that you can ensure you&#8217;re not adding accessibility problems as new content is added.</p>
<p>Content area scans are visible on each post&#8217;s or page&#8217;s edit screen as you type &#8211; no need to go elsewhere on your site to view results or visit a third-party website. These scans allow your team to create accessibile websites from the start, reducing the need for costly retroactive remediation.</p>
