An Accessibility Audit: What to Expect

An Accessibility Audit: What to Expect

An accessibility audit is a structured review of your site against WCAG, combining automated tools with hands-on testing. It tells you exactly where you stand, what the priority issues are, and how to put them right.

Think of it as a health check: it turns a vague worry about compliance into a clear, prioritised action plan you can actually work through.

What the Process Involves

A thorough audit looks at your site from several angles rather than relying on any single method.

  1. Automated scanning across key page templates.
  2. Manual keyboard and screen-reader testing.
  3. Review of forms, media and interactive components.
  4. A prioritised report with clear, practical fixes.

What You Receive

You get a plain-language report grouping issues by severity, with examples and recommended fixes, so your team — or ours — can act on it confidently and track progress toward your target standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should we audit?

We suggest a full audit before a major launch and a lighter review whenever significant changes are made, to catch regressions early.
