7 Website Accessibility Issues Worth Reviewing

← All articles

October 16, 2026

Accessibility issues vary by website. These are common topics to review, not a claim that Fortress has measured their frequency across the market.

Seven topics

  • Missing or unsuitable image alternatives; decorative images may correctly use empty alt text.
  • Form fields without meaningful labels.
  • Text with insufficient contrast.
  • Headings that do not communicate structure.
  • Links or buttons without useful accessible names; surrounding context matters.
  • Zoom restrictions or layout failures at increased magnification.
  • No effective way to bypass repeated content; a skip link is one option, not the only permitted technique.

What findings mean

A heuristic flag is not automatically a confirmed WCAG failure or legal determination. Rendered behavior and context need review.

Fortress HTML checks can flag some of these topics on up to 500 discoverable same-host pages. Google mobile PageSpeed analyzes contrast and other automated checks on the submitted URL only. We do not promise contrast testing on every crawled page. A downloadable PDF is available without email or signup.
