Your website is the front door to your events. If it’s not accessible, it can exclude people with disabilities. Accessible design helps everyone, making your site easier to navigate, read, and use, while reaching a wider audience.
Creating an accessible event website demonstrates your commitment to inclusive events while expanding your potential audience.
It also helps you comply with accessibility regulations in many regions, reducing legal risks while showing that your events welcome everyone.
At ASP, we believe every event should be accessible to everyone. Our platform is built with accessibility standards in mind, following WCAG guidelines to ensure your event website works for all potential attendees.
Every ASP designed website comes with essential accessibility features designed specifically for event websites:
Keyboard Navigation
Navigate through seminar schedules, speaker profiles, and registration forms using only a keyboard - essential for attendees with motor disabilities.
Screen Reader Compatibility
Event information, session details, and floorplans are properly structured so screen readers can accurately convey information to visually impaired attendees.
Clear Content Structure
Event content, speaker listings, and session information use proper heading hierarchies, making it easy for all users to understand your event structure.
Alt text For Images
Speaker photos, venue images, and sponsor logos should include descriptive text so visually impaired users understand visual content.
Colour Contrast Optimisation
Design elements meet contrast standards ensuring that text remains readable for visitors with visual impairments.
Focus Indicators
Clear visual indicators help keyboard users navigate through registration forms, session bookings, and interactive elements.
Responsive Design
Event websites work seamlessly across devices and assistive technologies, ensuring accessibility on desktop, tablet, and mobile.
Media captions
Adding captions to your media ensures that deaf and hard-of-hearing users can fully engage with your content, while also helping anyone watching in sound-sensitive environments.
Your Branding matters
Making your site accessible isn't just the right thing to do – it shows your brand genuinely cares about including everyone and can significantly expand your customer base.
