Technology & Digital Services — confidential client.

A full-service digital agency specializing in web development, mobile applications, UI/UX design, SEO, performance marketing, and digital transformation wanted to ensure its website reflected its commitment to delivering high-quality digital experiences. As the website serves as the primary platform for showcasing services, generating leads, and educating prospective clients, accessibility became an important part of the organization's digital strategy.

The Challenge

9 accessibility barriers that needed addressing.

Alternative text for images, graphics, and service illustrations

Heading hierarchy and semantic page structure

Keyboard navigation across menus and interactive elements

Form labels, validation messages, and error handling

Color contrast for text, buttons, and calls-to-action

Focus visibility for keyboard users

Screen reader compatibility

Accessible navigation and dropdown menus

Descriptive links and button labels

Our Approach

Structured engineering, not a one-time scan.

1

Comprehensive Accessibility Assessment

Zylyn conducted a comprehensive accessibility assessment using automated scanning and expert manual testing based on WCAG 2.2 guidelines. The assessment included the home page, service pages, industry solution pages, portfolio and case studies, contact and proposal request forms, blog pages, navigation menus, and interactive UI components.

2

Prioritized Remediation Guidance

Every accessibility finding included a WCAG Success Criterion reference, severity classification, user and business impact, recommended remediation, and developer-ready implementation guidance — enabling the team to efficiently prioritize high-impact improvements.

3

Accessibility Validation

Following remediation, Zylyn performed validation testing to verify that accessibility improvements were successfully implemented and that new issues had not been introduced.

Three-tool audit methodology

  • Google Lighthouse — structural and performance signals
  • WAVE — visual contrast and form label detection
  • axe-core scanner — precise WCAG criterion mapping

Violation tracker

Every issue mapped to its WCAG criterion, severity, and exact fix — turning accessibility barriers into a prioritised, manageable remediation backlog.

Verified results

An independent re-scan across multiple tools confirmed every remediation held. Each fix was verified against its WCAG criterion before being marked closed.

The Results

The numbers tell the story.
