WCAG Audit Service FAQs

An accessibility audit is where someone manually goes through your website and looks for accessibility issues under WCAG 2.0/2.1/2.2. A typical accessibility audit cost per page ranges from $150 to $500 and there are various factors that will impact the cost like consulting, VPAT, follow-up audit, training etc. There is no one-size-fits-all cost for WCAG audit services; this needs to be tailored for each customer depending on the application being assessed.

To simplify estimating the cost of an accessibility audit, we developed an accessibility cost calculator that offers a high-level overview of the expenses involved in achieving WCAG compliance for your website.

It is not feasible to perform a manual website accessibility audit on an entire website. Our accessibility audit specialists will usually work with you to identify exactly which pages to check, but start by putting a sample together to give them an idea of what’s on your
website. Your sample should include:
• Your site’s homepage
• Content pages that are mostly text based
• Images, video and audio content
• Interactive tools and transaction, like forms
• Pages including login functionality, if your website has them
• PDFs and other document types you have
• Dynamic content like pop-up windows
• Navigation pages, including your sitemap and pages with search functionality
