    Inclusive Web Design & Independent Review

    Website Accessibility & Inclusive Design

    Build practical accessibility foundations into a website redesign, then scope an independent manual review when agreed pages and a key user journey need closer examination.

    01 / Included in redesigns

    Start with the details people use every day.

    Accessibility foundations belong in the structure and core interactions of a redesigned website. We plan for the way people move through pages, use forms, follow keyboard focus, and adjust a layout to suit their screen and settings.

    Clear page structure

    Use a considered heading order and content grouping so visitors can find their place and follow the page.

    Keyboard-ready core actions

    Keep menus, links, buttons, and the main interactions usable without a mouse.

    Forms that explain the next step

    Give form fields clear labels and instructions, with useful errors visitors can identify and correct.

    Visible focus and contrast checks

    Check that important text and controls are legible and that keyboard focus is easy to see.

    Meaningful image descriptions

    Describe informative images in context and keep decorative imagery out of the reading order.

    Zoom and reflow checks

    Check that content remains usable when visitors enlarge a page or view it on a narrow screen.

    These foundations apply to the pages and core interactions in the redesign scope. They are not exhaustive manual testing of every URL, browser, assistive setup, or state.

    02 / Optional paid engagement

    A manual review starts with a defined journey.

    When a closer evaluation is useful, an independent accessibility specialist can manually review representative page templates and a named task, such as submitting a lead form, booking, signing up, or checking out. The proposal sets the sample, test methods, technical standard, and exclusions before work begins.

    Availability confirmed first

    Scope and fee before proposal

    Red Nova confirms an independent specialist's availability and fee for your project before sending a review proposal. The work moves ahead only after you approve the written scope, timing, and price.

    03 / Clear roles, clear handoff

    Know who tests, who coordinates, and what follows.

    The independent specialist performs the assessment. Red Nova coordinates the agreed scope and helps turn the technical findings into a practical next-step decision. Any implementation or retesting is scoped separately.

    01

    Agree on the sample

    Red Nova helps define the page templates, the named user journey, and the states or third-party tools included in the review.

    02

    Confirm the independent review

    Before a proposal, we confirm an independent specialist's availability, methods, scope, timing, and fee. The written proposal records what the reviewer will test.

    03

    Review findings and next steps

    The specialist delivers prioritized technical findings for the agreed scope. Red Nova can then review the site implementation and quote any agreed fixes separately.

    Assessment tiers, cost drivers, and a separate remediation planning range are listed on the Pricing page.

    Review boundary

    A scoped technical review, not a legal certification.

    A representative sample covers only the templates and user journey named in the proposal, not every URL or state across a website. An accessibility review is technical work, not legal advice or formal certification. It does not guarantee legal compliance or protect a business from a lawsuit.

    Independent retesting is quoted separately and proceeds only when a reviewer is available and the written proposal includes it.
