Why Having a Non-ADA Compliant Website Could Be Worse Than Not Having One at All

In today’s digital age, having a website for your business isn’t just a luxury—it’s a necessity. But if your website isn’t ADA compliant, it may be doing more harm than good. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that websites be accessible to people with disabilities. Failing to meet these standards can lead to lawsuits, fines, and potential business closure.

Here's the reality: 98% of websites fail to meet ADA compliance standards, leaving the vast majority of businesses vulnerable. The consequences are severe—many businesses have been fined or sued, sometimes for hundreds of thousands of dollars. For a small or mid-sized company, a lawsuit like this can be devastating, and in some cases, it can put you out of business.

If your website isn't accessible, you're not only excluding millions of potential customers, but you're also risking significant legal trouble. The choice is simple: either ensure your website is ADA compliant or consider not having one at all.

I’m one of the few who specializes in building fully ADA compliant websites. If I didn't build your website, you're most likely part of that 98%, putting yourself and your business at risk. By investing in a compliant site from the start, you protect your business, broaden your reach, and demonstrate your commitment to inclusivity.

In short, if your website isn’t ADA compliant, you’re better off without one. But if you’re serious about your business and want to avoid costly lawsuits, get your website built the right way—ADA compliant from the ground up.

Key Takeaways:

  • ADA non-compliance can result in lawsuits and fines.
  • 98% of websites are not ADA compliant, leaving most businesses exposed.
  • Building an ADA compliant website is crucial to protect your business and serve all customers.

If you're ready to protect your business and make your website accessible to all, let's talk.
