🔍 Case Study: Doubled NHS Traffic - Positive Impact of Accessibility 🔍 The UK's National Health Service (NHS) website underwent a redesign focused on complying with accessibility laws, which require public sector companies to achieve an AA rating based on website accessibility guidelines (WCAG). This initiative included reducing the number of PDFs on the website from 12,000 to a few hundred, simplifying the user interface, and ensuring clear content. The percentage of pages achieving the highest AAA accessibility rating increased from 53% to 98%, and pages without priority accessibility issues rose from 36% to 100%. As a result, daily users increased from 15,000 to 26,000, and average page engagement time decreased. 🌐 Source: Design Week - https://lnkd.in/gkvRxc4 #Accessibility #WebsiteRedesign #NHS #DigitalTransformation #WCAG #HealthcareInnovation #UserExperience #DigitalAccessibility #Kloosive Image description: Title of the case study: "Doubled NHS Traffic: Positive Impact of Accessibility" — followed by an image of NHS website title page.
