Its very easy to check to see if your site complies with the w3c's accessibility recommendations. You can use Watchfire® WebXACT to scan and analyze any web page for quality, accessibility, and privacy issues.
You should be aware that webXACT is only able to automatically check some of the checkpoints. Other checkpoints will need to be verified through other means. Nonetheless, it is a useful starting point. If your site fails an automatic check, you can infer that it does not meet the WCAG guidelines. The EU and the Irish government both recommend that all websites in their jurisdiction meet the AA conformance levels.
To check if your site is accessible, simply paste the type the URL of your web site into the text box below and press 'Go'. Please be patient as the scan can take a minute or two.
If you discover that your site is not accessible, please contact us for an accessibility upgrade quotation.
