Product Tour > Accessibility Testing Monitoring

In this short video I will show you how easy it is to start checking, monitoring and improving accessibility of any website with iCheckWebsite.com.

Accessibility could be one of the main differentiator between competitors. Accessibility is not only required by law, but it also make business sense to think about millions of potential customers who might go to competitors with more accessible web presence.

Many organisations do not have required technical expertise and have no idea about accessibility related issues on their websites. An impressive and functional website for a normal user could be completely useless for millions.

Websites are usually as accessible as their content and many websites have common accessibility problems such as

  • Absence of alt text for all the images, videos and objects.
  • Absence of titles.
  • Presence of duplicate anchor text, depricated tags, blinking texts and so on.

These are some examples of accessibility related checks which are relevant for every web page. It is a good idea to check web pages periodically for accessibility, because content changes frequently. Unfortunately, going through these checks periodically on every single page is a resource intensive, time consuming and problematic task.

iCheckWebsite solves this problem and makes it extremely easy to execute accessibility related checks on entire website. Not only that, it also has a scheduler to check websites for broken accessibility periodically.

Let's have a quick look at iCheckWebsite and see how easy it is to start testing and monitoring websites for accessibility in less than a minute.

I already have an account so will use my credentials to log in to iCheckWebsite.

  • After logging in, I will click on the add site link and add the website I need to test. Let's test PlannedDeparture.com on live environment for this demo.
  • Next step for me is selecting checks I need to execute. Since we are interested in accessibility, let's select presence of alt text, duplicate anchor text and presence of blinking text.
  • I can also specify how many pages I need to test or URL pattern I need to test. Lets not specify anything here and execute these checks on all the pages of PlannedDeparture.com.
  • After specifying rules, it is time to specify schedule for the execution. This feature becomes extremely useful, when content of the website changes frequently and you need to monitor content for accessibility. For PlannedDeparture, I will create a daily execution schedule for 11:00 PM to monitor accessibility.
  • And that's it - after following these steps in less than 30 seconds, I am done. Going forward, PlannedDeparture.com would be checked automatically at 11:00 PM every day and I can focus on fixing issues reported by iCheckWebsite. It is that easy to start testing and monitoring websites for accessibility with iCheckWebsite.com.
  • Results are produced for every URL and gives information on - What is broken on every web page along with guidance on how to fix those issues.

iCheckWebsite hides all the complexities and gives an easy and affordable way to test websites for accessibility.

So look at the various plans & pricing, choose the right one and start testing & monitoring websites for accessibility in less then a minute. Thank you for your time.
