Expectations for high-quality content are at an all-time high:
Research shows that 73% of consumers say one extraordinary digital experience raises their expectations of other companies to deliver a similar experience.
For marketers today, content is much like code. Publishing poor quality, inaccessible content is like pushing out code that hasn’t been proactively debugged. That’s where digital accessibility comes in. Creating content with quality and accessibility standards from the start enables marketers to avoid the unnecessary disconnect between content and conversion.
The cost to fix an error found after product release was four to five times as much as one uncovered during design, and up to 100 times more than one identified in the maintenance phase.
