Understanding Website Accessibility
More Than Design. It's Access and Equity
Imagine landing on a website where the text is too tiny to read, buttons don't work with your keyboard, or videos play without captions. Frustrating, right?
But it is the reality for millions of people with disabilities; not just as an inconvenience, but as a barrier.
Here's where accessibility takes the lead.
It's about ensuring your website is accessible to everyone, regardless of their disabilities. Whether it's a screen reader user navigating with a keyboard or someone with low vision increasing text size, accessibility ensures no one is left out of the digital experience.
The Core of Web Accessibility: The POUR Framework
Perceivable
Ensure your site content and components are presented in a way that is clear and understandable to users.
Operable
Users must be able to navigate your site without encountering any hidden obstacles.
Understandable
From button labels to error messages, your content should be easy to read, follow, and interact with.
Robust
Your site should work reliably across devices and assistive technologies, now and in the future.

The folks at Beanstalk were essential to our website redesign project… That redesign project recently won a national award from PR Daily, naming our website the best non-profit website of 2021. We couldn’t have completed the project or won that award without the work of the Beanstalk team.
