Greg McNeilWCAG 1.4.10 Reflow: How to Avoid Two-Direction Scrolling
Have you ever visited a page that looks fine at first, but when you zoom in, you have to scroll sideways just to read the content? Or maybe you’ve had to zoom in and out to see everything? We still see this during reviews, even on sites that claim to be “responsive.” WCAG 2.1 Success […]

Greg McNeilWCAG Level A Is the Floor, Not the Finish Line
A question comes up on almost every digital team at some point: “Is our site accessible?” The answer is often a hesitant, “We think so.” That pause tells you a lot. Accessibility often breaks down behind the scenes. When it’s missing, the gaps aren’t always obvious. A site can look great but still b

What users experience depends on what the browser chooses to expose. For people using assistive technologies, that expe
Greg McNeilWhen Web Accessibility Standards Gets Fuzzy
Every team that works on digital accessibility eventually runs into the same moment: the rules don’t feel black and white. You’re following the Web Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) and doing your best to interpret them. Then suddenly, you find yourself asking: Does this count? Are we helping everyone
Greg McNeilEase Into Motion: Smarter Animation Accessibility
Imagine clicking into a website and being hit with swirling graphics, sliding panels, or a bouncing button that just won’t stop. For many people, that kind of animation isn’t just annoying—it’s physically harmful. Dizziness. Nausea. Migraines. Disorientation. For users with motion sensitivity, these
