Web accessibility to WCAG 2.2 AA: audit and fixes in the code

An accessible website works with a keyboard, a screen reader or zoom. We audit yours by hand and with tools, fix the code and help you prepare for the European Accessibility Act.

Web accessibility means anyone, including people with disabilities, can use your website; its technical benchmark is WCAG 2.2 Level AA. Nexura Digital audits your site and fixes the code, working remotely with businesses affected by the European Accessibility Act or that want a site for everyone. You can start with a 7-day trial on one critical flow, such as your contact form.

What the rules require, stated carefully

This is general technical information, not legal advice: whether the law applies to you is for your advisor to confirm.

European Accessibility Act

It is Directive (EU) 2019/882, which has applied since June 28, 2025; in Spain it is transposed by Law 11/2023. It covers certain products and services, such as consumer ecommerce and banking, e-books and electronic communications.

Important nuances

  • Microenterprises providing services (fewer than 10 people and up to EUR 2 million in annual turnover or balance sheet) are exempt from the service requirements
  • A corporate site that doesn't sell to consumers may fall outside the scope
  • The public sector has its own rules: in Spain, Royal Decree 1112/2018

The technical benchmark

WCAG 2.2 Level AA is the reference standard for websites, and the European standard EN 301 549 incorporates WCAG criteria.

What the audit and fixes include

Automated and manual review

Tools such as axe, WAVE or Lighthouse catch only part of the issues; the rest takes manual review with a keyboard, screen readers such as NVDA or VoiceOver and enlarged text.

What we fix most often

  • Insufficient contrast: normal text needs at least 4.5:1
  • Images without useful alt text and icon buttons with no name
  • Forms without labels or understandable errors
  • Focus that is invisible or hidden by sticky headers or cookie banners
  • Touch targets smaller than 24 by 24 CSS pixels, with some exceptions

Our working method

From scope to verification

  • Scope: representative templates and critical flows
  • Automated and manual audit against WCAG 2.2 AA
  • A report with each issue's criterion, location, severity and fix
  • Fixes by priority: whatever blocks buying or contacting you comes first
  • Retesting and documentation of the final state

Is it right for your site?

It's a priority if

  • You sell online to consumers in the EU and are not a microenterprise
  • You are redesigning and want the new site accessible from day one
  • You have received a complaint or a question about accessibility

It won't help if

  • You want a certificate or a legal opinion: we don't issue them
  • You expect to solve it with a plugin in an afternoon
  • Your site will be rebuilt within weeks: audit the new design instead

Audit deliverables

What you take away

  • A report by WCAG 2.2 AA criterion, with screenshots and locations
  • A prioritized task list
  • Fixes applied and verified
  • A draft of your accessibility information for your advisor to review
  • A guide for content editors: alt text, headings and links

First step: the 7-day trial

One critical flow, audited and fixed

We pick a key journey with you, such as the contact form or checkout, audit it against WCAG 2.2 AA with a keyboard and a screen reader, and fix whatever prevents people from completing it. You see the method before extending the work. Terms are set in writing before we start.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does the European Accessibility Act apply to me?

It depends on what you offer, to whom and the size of your company: it mainly affects services such as consumer ecommerce and banking, and it exempts microenterprises that provide services. We review technically which parts of your site are involved, but the legal conclusion must come from your advisor.

Is an accessibility plugin or widget enough?

No. Overlays change the look or add an options menu, but they don't fix labels, focus order, headings or components that fail with a keyboard, and they can interfere with the person's own screen reader. That's why we fix templates, components, CSS and content, then retest every issue.

What changed between WCAG 2.1 and 2.2?

WCAG 2.2 adds criteria such as focus not being hidden, a minimum size for touch targets, alternatives to dragging and authentication that doesn't force people to remember or transcribe information without an alternative. It also removes criterion 4.1.1, Parsing. Content that meets WCAG 2.2 AA also meets 2.1 AA.

How long does it take to make a site accessible?

It depends on size, technology and how many issues the templates share. Many errors repeat: fixing one component, such as the menu or the product card, fixes every page that uses it. After the audit we give you an estimate by block, with timelines confirmed in writing.
