Website remediation
Remediation is the repair work after an audit. Each item names a page, a WCAG success criterion, and the change in code or content. The goal is a path a person can finish without a mouse, not a higher scanner score.
What gets fixed
- Labels, names, and roles on buttons, links, and fields.
- Keyboard order, visible focus, and dialogs that trap focus.
- Contrast of text, buttons, and meaningful icons.
- Alt text, captions, transcripts, and tagged PDFs.
- Error messages that name the field and how to correct it.
An overlay that rewrites the page after it loads does not replace these fixes. The criteria apply to the page itself. See the ADA compliance guide for how Title II and Title III differ.
Questions and answers
What does website remediation mean?
Remediation is the work of changing the code and content so each failed WCAG success criterion passes. It is not a badge, a scanner score, or a widget that runs after the page loads.
Which fixes come first?
Start with the templates people use to finish a task: navigation, search, forms, checkout, video, and PDFs. A fix in a template covers every page built from it.
Do you retest after the fix?
Yes. After the change, the same keyboard and screen reader checks run again. The record names the page, the criterion, and whether it now passes.
