When to Consider an Accessibility-Focused Redesign
While many accessibility issues can be fixed individually, some websites require a more comprehensive solution. If your website has outdated code, inconsistent structure, or widespread accessibility problems, a redesign may be the most effective way to create an inclusive experience for all users.
A redesign allows you to rebuild your website using modern standards, proper structure, and accessible design patterns that are difficult to retrofit into older sites.
Signs You May Need an Accessibility-Focused Redesign
1. Your Website Has Widespread Accessibility Issues
If automated tools and manual testing reveal dozens of issues across multiple pages, fixing them one by one may be inefficient.
2. Your Website Uses Outdated Code or Structure
Older websites often lack semantic HTML, proper headings, ARIA support, and responsive design—all essential for accessibility.
3. Your Website Is Difficult to Navigate
Confusing menus, inconsistent layouts, and poor structure make navigation difficult for all users, especially those using assistive technologies.
4. Your Website Was Not Built with Accessibility in Mind
Many small business websites were created before accessibility became a priority. A redesign ensures accessibility is built into the foundation.
5. Fixing Issues Individually Would Take More Time
Sometimes, rebuilding is faster and more cost-effective than patching dozens of issues across your site.
