Project description
Our website needs a thorough accessibility audit before we roll out a redesign, and we are looking for someone who can check it against recognized accessibility guidelines. The site is used by a broad audience, including older users and people with visual or motor impairments, and right now we have no real confidence the interface actually works for them. We need someone who understands how real assistive technology behaves in practice, not only what an automated checklist says.
The audit should cover color contrast across pages and components, focus states and keyboard-only navigation through menus, forms and interactive widgets, correct use of headings and landmarks, alt text for images, and compatibility with at least one popular screen reader. We would like the result as a structured report: what fails, why it fails, how severe the issue is, and a concrete fix, ideally referencing the relevant success criteria so our developers understand the reasoning.
Experience with real assistive technology testing, not just automated scanners, matters here, since automated tools only catch a fraction of real problems. Please share examples of previous audits, roughly how long the work would take, and whether you can also verify the fixes once our team implements them.
What we expect in the final deliverable:
— a prioritized list of issues by severity
— screenshots or examples for each problem found
— practical fix recommendations for developers and designers
— a short summary suitable for management
