Why Shopify Accessibility Matters
Shopify accessibility matters because it allows all users, including those with disabilities, to access and navigate your online store with ease. By applying accessibility best practices, such as adding alt text to images, enabling keyboard navigation, and using high-contrast colors, you create a more inclusive and user-friendly shopping experience for everyone, including people with temporary impairments or those using mobile devices. Shopify accessibility also supports compliance with legal standards like the ADA and WCAG, helping you avoid potential lawsuits. In addition to being the right thing to do ethically, accessible design can improve SEO, boost customer satisfaction, and expand your store’s reach to a wider audience.
