Introduction
In July 2014, WebAIM conducted a survey of web accessibility practitioners. We received 900 valid responses to this survey. A few disclaimers and notices:
Totals may not equal 100% due to rounding.
Total responses (n) for each question may not equal 900 due to respondents not answering that particular question.
The sample was not controlled and may not represent all web accessibility practitioners.
We hope to conduct additional surveys of this nature again in the future. If you have recommendations or questions you would like us to ask, please contact us.
