5 quick accessibility wins for any website

GoWay Team·10 July 2026·1 min read

Small changes that make a big difference for your visitors. None of them requires a major redesign.

1. Add alternative text to images

Describe what the image shows or what it does. Decorative images can have empty alt text.

2. Check color contrast

Body text should have a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 against its background.

3. Keep the focus outline visible

Never remove the focus outline without providing a clear alternative.

4. Label your form fields

Every field needs a visible label, not just placeholder text.

5. Use real headings

Structure your pages with H1–H3 so screen reader users can jump between sections.
