An Accessible Website Reaches More People — and Stands on Stronger Ground

More than 61 million Americans live with a disability, and the share of customers using assistive technology grows every year. An accessible website opens your business to more of them, and at the same time aligns you with the standard courts now look to in ADA cases involving commercial websites. Most small business sites have not yet been built or audited to that standard. The good news: it's fixable. And we've already done it on our own site.

What We Do

We audit your website against WCAG 2.1 Level AA — the standard most often referenced in ADA web cases — identify every failure within scope, fix every issue within our control, document any known third-party limitations honestly, and deliver a documented compliance package that both supports your business and reflects a real, ongoing commitment.

We do not sell an overlay or a widget. We fix the actual code, implement real solutions in your page builder, and give you documentation that holds up — including a live Accessibility Statement page on your site with your audited scores and an honest disclosure of any limitations.

Larger Sites

For sites with 10+ pages, e-commerce, or complex integrations, we scope custom packages. Starting at $2,500. Tell us about your site and we'll put together a fit-for-purpose proposal.

Third-Party VPAT / ACR

For clients with procurement requirements or higher-risk profiles, we coordinate independent accessibility audits and produce a Voluntary Product Accessibility Template or Accessibility Conformance Report. Starting at $2,500 (third-party audit cost passed through, plus project management).

We Did This on Our Own Site First

We don't sell what we haven't done. Backyard Bougie's own website was built and audited to WCAG 2.1 Level AA — every fix implemented, every score documented, every limitation honestly disclosed. That's the same process we bring to your business.

Common Questions

Does my website platform already handle this?

No. Platforms like GHL, Wix, and Squarespace handle infrastructure — not content-level accessibility. Alt text, heading structure, form labels, and color contrast are determined by how your site is built, not the platform it runs on.

Can't I just add an accessibility overlay?

Overlays are not a legal defense. Multiple courts have ruled against them. They frequently break screen readers rather than fix them. We fix the underlying code — the only approach that actually holds up.

What if my site changes after the fix?

Every new page, blog post, or plugin can introduce new issues. That's what the Compliance Retainer is for — ongoing quarterly audits, new content reviews, and score documentation so you stay protected as your site evolves.

Is this really a legal requirement?

Web accessibility for commercial websites is a settled legal issue, even though the federal rule-making lags. Title III of the ADA has been interpreted by courts across the country to require accessible websites for businesses that serve the public, and WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the standard those courts most often reference. In April 2024, the Department of Justice formalized WCAG 2.1 AA as the rule for state and local government websites under Title II — a strong signal of where the standard is heading more broadly. Over 4,000 ADA web lawsuits are filed in U.S. federal courts every year. The risk is real and current.
