See accessibility as a real opportunity. If you make your website accessible, you gain new target groups, improve the user experience and show responsibility. Everyone benefits from this - not only legally, but also economically.
The Barrier-Free Accessibility Reinforcement Act (BFSG) obliges many companies and institutions to make their digital offerings equally accessible for people with disabilities. This applies to public bodies as well as online stores, service portals and company websites. Accessibility is no longer a nice-to-have, but a legal requirement with clear specifications and possible sanctions for non-compliance.
Would you like to comply with the requirements of the law and make your website accessible as quickly as possible to avoid complaints and fines? As an experienced web design agency for accessibility, we determine the measures required for your website and implement them immediately - in terms of technology, content and design. Whether it's a one-pager, a website with many subpages or an extensive online store: We document the current status of your accessibility in a comprehensible and transparent manner as well as the results after our optimization. Contact us now - we will make your website accessible!
Accessibility on the Internet means that all people can use digital content without any problems, regardless of physical or cognitive limitations. The Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz (BFSG) obliges many companies to make their websites and online services accessible. This is based on international standards such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), which define specific technical and design requirements. Those who meet these requirements ensure more participation, better user-friendliness and at the same time fulfill legal obligations. Accessibility is therefore not only a legal issue, but also a quality feature of modern websites. We help you to implement these standards in your web design professionally and comprehensibly.
We use professional testing tools such as AccessibilityChecker.org or AccessScan to ensure that accessibility does not become a black box for you. These analysis tools help to reliably uncover technical and design barriers and present the results clearly and comprehensibly. The measures we implement are documented for you. This gives you a clear and concise before-and-after comparison. If your website meets all the relevant criteria, we will issue an accessibility certificate via AccessibilityChecker.org. This gives you an accessible website based on transparent processes and evidence.
Accessibility does not require a complete redesign, but rather targeted adjustments with a big impact. We systematically analyze your website and implement measures that are relevant for people with different disabilities.
One key issue is color contrast: texts must be easy to read even with impaired vision. We therefore adapt colors so that they meet the contrast requirements of WCAG without distorting the design. Alternative texts for images help people with visual impairments to grasp the content of visually impacted pages via screen readers. ARIA labels supplement the semantic structure and make operating elements accessible for assistive technologies.
We are revising the heading structure so that users with screen readers can find their way around the site more easily. We also ensure that all functions can be operated using the keyboard, which is an important criterion for users with motor impairments. Visible focus markers are also included so that users know where they are at all times.
All of these measures increase accessibility and improve the overall user experience. At the same time, they help to meet the requirements of the Barrier-Free Accessibility Reinforcement Act in a comprehensible and sustainable manner.
Easy-to-read language helps people to understand content more quickly and reliably, for example if they have reading difficulties, limited knowledge of German or cognitive impairments. We create a separate page with information in plain language, adapted to your target group. We use short sentences, clear terms and simple structures. The aim is for all visitors to be able to find their way around your website independently without needing help.
The accessibility statement is a legally required component of many websites. It provides information on the extent to which your site is accessible, what exceptions exist and how users can report barriers. We create this declaration to suit your website and ensure that it is easy to find and easy to understand.
We also offer the integration of plug-ins for greater accessibility. These include, for example, tools for adjusting the font size, switching color contrasts or simplifying navigation. These small aids can make everyday life much easier for many users. They are integrated without negatively affecting the loading times of your website.

We have already implemented accessibility for numerous companies and organizations, including Wohnungsbaugenossenschaft Pasewalk eG, the MeckCura nursing service, the dental practice ZahnWohl Neuenhagen, for KleeblattSund, Lenz Wild and Elbmed Prignitz, which includes websites for a hospital, a school, a service company and a senior citizens' center. Typical measures that we implement for an accessible web design include
Accessible websites make content accessible to more people, including people with disabilities, older users or people with little digital experience. But website operators also benefit: Accessibility improves overall user-friendliness, reduces bounce rates and boosts reach. An accessible website fulfills legal requirements, increases trust and signals responsibility. In addition, SEO and loading times often benefit directly from the necessary technical optimizations. Removing barriers opens up new target groups - and turns obligation into real added value.
Whether it's a one-pager, complex web store or company portal - we make your website accessible. We combine technical analysis with creative sensitivity, implement tried-and-tested measures and document the steps in a comprehensible manner. From easy-to-read language to ARIA labels: you will receive a solution that is both suitable for your users and complies with legal requirements. Our experience, modern tools and a clear process ensure reliable results, regardless of project size or industry. If you are interested, send us an e-mail right away and have your website checked for accessibility now - we will advise you personally.
How many measures are necessary depends heavily on the current state of your website. Factors such as design, CMS used, page depth, image material and navigation play a major role. Some pages contain only a few hurdles, others require extensive corrections, especially if they have grown structures or complex functions. For one-pagers, you can expect around 3 to 7 hours of work, for corporate websites with different page types around 6 to 15 hours and for online stores or large platforms around 10 to 24 hours. What exactly does it look like for you? You will receive a clear estimate after our analysis!
According to the BFSG, accessibility is mandatory for many companies - especially for providers of digital services, online stores, banks, insurance companies and public bodies.
Yes, small and medium-sized companies can also be affected - depending on the sector and the product range. It is worth checking in any case to avoid legal risks.
Digital accessibility means that people with disabilities can use websites without restrictions - e.g. via screen reader, keyboard or with limited reading ability.
The most important technical specifications are provided by the WCAG standard (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) - this is also the basis for legal regulations such as the BFSG.
We analyze the site with professional tools, document all barriers and create a concrete action plan. We then take over the implementation.
No. Many measures can be implemented without major changes to the design. Our goal is: barrier-free and at the same time modern and user-friendly.
The costs depend on the scope of the site and the current status. After an initial analysis, we provide a transparent estimate of the effort and price. Based on our previous projects, the following time periods are a realistic basis for calculation:
We charge 120 euros per hour (net).
Yes, in principle this is possible. It depends on the CMS and the current maintenance status of the website. If a website contains too much technical debt, it can lead to undesirable interactions that increase the workload. For example, we were surprised by a client's one-pager that was put together by another agency using a Klicki-Bunti page builder: Before our optimizations became visible, we first had to fix numerous other problems that were inherent to the old system and actually had nothing to do with accessibility.
The accessibility statement informs users about the accessibility status of your website. It provides information on where to report any accessibility problems. We create the accessibility statement for you and integrate it visibly into your pages.
We create a separate subpage with content in plain language - short, understandable and formulated for the target group. This allows you to reach significantly more people.
Yes, for example, if users set their browser view to 120%, it is conceivable that Google will favor accessible websites in the search results. On the other hand, non-accessible websites collect poor user signals if, for example, visually impaired people leave the website prematurely due to a lack of color contrast or text that is too small. Positive user signals are a ranking factor and negative user signals are just as counterproductive.
