A small business lost $40K overnight because they didn’t know website accessibility was part of the law.
Digital accessibility means ensuring that websites and online content can be used by people with disabilities, as required under federal law including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
WBAG is a framework that helps websites achieve accessibility within modern website builders.
The Website Builder Accessibility Guidelines (WBAG) is an educational framework created by DAPEN.org to help website designers improve accessibility within popular platforms like Wix, Squarespace, and WordPress.
Across the country, small business owners are being targeted by law firms now using AI tools to identify websites that fail to meet ADA accessibility standards.
These real cases reveal how costly non-compliance can be—and why every business, regardless of size, must follow accessibility laws to avoid lawsuits and protect their reputation.
If your client faces an accessibility claim or lawsuit, DAPEN.org steps in to protect them.

Our calendar is filled with a variety of activities, from cultural festivals and holiday parades to community clean-ups and recreational programs.
The Digital Accessibility Protection & Education Network is an organization dedicated to improving digital accessibility across modern website platforms.
Our mission is to educate website designers with clear, practical guidance and to protect small business owners by helping them understand and meet essential accessibility expectations. DAPEN.org exists to make accessibility more approachable, more achievable, and more aligned with how websites are built today.
The Website Builder Accessibility Guidelines (WBAG) were created to address a gap in traditional accessibility standards. While WCAG provides the global foundation, it is often difficult for designers working in modern website builders to translate those requirements into practical steps.
WBAG simplifies this process by focusing on the essential accessibility practices that apply directly to platforms like Webflow, WordPress, Squarespace, and Wix, making accessibility more achievable for everyday designers and small teams.
WBAG is designed for website designers, agencies, freelancers, and business owners who build or manage websites on modern visual builders.
It offers a practical, real-world approach for anyone who wants to improve accessibility without navigating dense technical standards. Whether you're responsible for a single business site or multiple client projects, WBAG provides clear steps to help you meet essential accessibility expectations.
