Use automated tools first
Free browser tools can flag missing alt text, contrast problems, and missing labels in minutes.
They will not catch everything, but they quickly reveal the most common issues.
A useful starting point
Audit your homepage, contact page, and most popular service page first. These matter most to visitors.
Test manually with keyboard and zoom
Tab through each page, zoom to 200 percent, and check that nothing breaks or disappears.
Manual testing catches problems automated tools miss.
Prioritise and plan fixes
Group issues by impact and effort. Fix the barriers on your most important pages first.
Document progress so you can show ongoing commitment to accessibility.
Your practical checklist
- Run an automated accessibility scan.
- Navigate key pages with the keyboard.
- Zoom pages to 200 percent.
- List issues by impact.
- Schedule fixes and re-test.
