Our Commitment
Digital Accessibility for Everyone
MDWebAgency is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people of all abilities. We believe the web should work for everyone, and we take that seriously in every site we build.
We design and develop to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA as a standard practice. This is not a certified claim — we are not audited or accredited by any third-party accessibility authority. It is the baseline we hold ourselves to because it produces better, more usable websites for everyone.
Accessibility is an ongoing effort, not a one-time checkbox. We continuously review our work, stay updated on evolving standards, and fix issues as they are identified. Every new page, feature, or design change we ship is reviewed against our accessibility standards before it goes live.
What We Do
Our Accessibility Standards in Practice
Semantic HTML
We use proper HTML elements for their intended purpose — nav, main, article, section, aside, button, and heading tags. This ensures screen readers and assistive technologies can navigate and interpret the page structure correctly.
Proper Heading Hierarchy
Every page follows a logical heading order (h1 → h2 → h3). Headings describe the content beneath them. We never skip levels or use headings purely for visual styling.
Color Contrast Minimums
We maintain a minimum contrast ratio of 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text against its background. Our design system is built with contrast ratios in mind from the start, not as an afterthought.
Keyboard Navigability
All interactive elements — links, buttons, forms, menus — are reachable and operable via keyboard alone. Focus indicators are visible. Tab order follows the visual layout. No content is trapped behind keyboard-inaccessible interactions.
Alt Text on Images
Every meaningful image includes descriptive alt text. Decorative images use empty alt attributes to hide them from screen readers. We do not stuff keywords into alt text.
Accessible Form Labels
Every form field has an associated label. Error messages are clear and programmatically associated with the field. Required fields are indicated. Placeholder text is never used as a substitute for labels.
Acknowledgment
Ongoing Work
We are honest about where we are: we build every site with accessibility best practices from day one, but we do not claim perfect or full compliance. Some older client sites built before our current standards may have gaps we are actively addressing. Third-party content, embedded widgets, or client-uploaded media may not always meet our accessibility targets.
When we identify a gap — whether through our own review, automated testing tools, or direct feedback — we prioritize fixing it. We treat accessibility issues the same way we treat performance issues: they get scheduled, assigned, and resolved.
