Accessible online stores: why alt attributes are indispensable
Alt attributes are a key element of digital accessibility. They enable users with visual impairments to perceive content via screen readers and ensure that product images, buttons and graphics in online stores are accessible to everyone.
In addition to the improved user experience, alt texts are indispensable from a legal perspective: compliance with legal requirements such as WCAG 2.2, the BFSG and the EAA is mandatory for online stores. Missing or inadequate alt attributes can lead to warnings and loss of reputation.
