How do I know if my website needs consultancy?If you feel your website isn’t performing as well as it could, or you’re unsure what’s holding it back, our Cheltenham website consultancy can help. Common signs include poor user engagement, low conversions, slow performance, accessibility issues, or difficulty ranking on search engines. We’ll work with you to identify what’s working, what’s not, and create a clear strategy to improve your site and support your business goals.
Can improving accessibility increase my website’s traffic?Yes. An accessible website can reach a broader audience, including people with disabilities who might otherwise be excluded. It also improves user experience for everyone, which can lead to higher engagement and conversions. Additionally, search engines often favour accessible sites, boosting your rankings.
What is WCAG, and why does it matter?WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) is an international set of standards designed to make websites and digital content accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. It matters because following WCAG ensures your site is inclusive, meets legal requirements, and provides a better experience for all users.
Why Is the Scorecard Free? Isn’t that a lot of work?It is a significant time investment. Every scorecard is carefully evaluated by a real person who takes the time to thoroughly review your website. As part of our Cheltenham web consultancy, we offer this service for free because our mission is to improve web accessibility and help businesses create inclusive experiences for people of all abilities.
Do you work with anyone in the UK?Yes, we do! While we provide web design services in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire we work remotely, which means we can support businesses across the UK. If you’d prefer a face-to-face meeting, we’re happy to travel within Cheltenham, Gloucester, Tewkesbury, Bristol, Oxford, Swindon, Bath, and their surrounding areas.
What is web accessibility, and why does it matter?Web accessibility ensures that all users, including those with disabilities, can access and use your website. This means designing for screen readers, keyboard navigation, colour contrast, and more. It matters because 24% of the UK population has a disability, and 7 in 10 will leave a site if they encounter accessibility issues. Improving accessibility expands your audience, enhances your brand’s reputation, and can even boost your SEO.
