Accessibility matters because it ensures everyone, including people with disabilities, can use digital products. In the U.S., current laws like the ADA and Section 508 require compliance, and upcoming regulations, such as WCAG 2.2, will push for even higher standards. Failing to meet these requirements can lead to legal risks and lost business, as inaccessible websites exclude millions of potential customers. On the other hand, investing in accessibility expands your market reach, improves ROI, and builds loyalty by creating inclusive experiences for all users.
