Continuous accessibility monitoring

Accessibility active monitoring refers to the regular scanning of your site to ensure accessibility is maintained as content changes over time.

As the name suggests, a one-off audit happens once and provides a snapshot in time of how accessible your digital content is. Accessibility monitoring is ongoing — continuously monitoring your site’s accessibility and identifying issues in real time.

New content, updates, and regular website maintenance can create new accessibility issues — even if you tested content in pre-production environments. Regularly scanning your site with automated monitoring ensures accessibility issues are detected and fixed before they impact your customers or result in legal problems.

Look for an accessibility monitoring solution that combines both automated and expert testing as well as automatic fixes. This ensures that you uncover accessibility issues and fix them more quickly. Additionally, look for a platform with custom fixes as your accessibility is unique to your business.

No accessibility platform can catch all accessibility issues; there are some that are too complex for automation alone. For example, accessibility checkers can determine if alt text is included on an image, but it tell if it’s descriptive. Expert testers can. Combining both automated and expert testing ensures your website is as accessible as possible.

Continuous accessibility monitoring maintains the accessibility of your site — even if your site changes or accessibility standards change. Additionally, active monitoring enables you to enhance the accessibility of your site which opens the door to a wider pool of customers. With more people able to find and use your site, you can increase your bottom line, grow your customer base, and bolster your brand’s reputation.
