An accessibility checklist for a link-in-bio page
Review link labels, contrast, mobile layout and media alternatives so a link-in-bio page is easier for more people to use.
A short page can still be difficult to use. Vague buttons, pale text, image-only details and tiny targets can hide the next step from people using a phone, keyboard or assistive technology. An accessibility check improves the page's basic clarity for everyone.
Make each link understandable on its own.
Use labels such as 'Book a consultation' or 'Read the current menu' instead of repeating 'Click here.' Someone moving through a list of links should be able to tell destinations apart without reading the entire page first.
Avoid using an icon alone for an important action unless its accessible name is clear. Keep the visible label aligned with the destination it actually opens.
Read the page in every theme and on a small screen.
Check text against backgrounds, including photographs and gradients. Color should not be the only signal that something is a link or that a message needs attention. Test the actual published page, because a preview can miss a media or theme combination.
Zoom in and rotate a phone. The main action, contact details and explanatory text should remain readable without horizontal scrolling or overlapping cards.
Use headings and text for information people need.
A poster image can support an event, but date, location and ticket details should also be available as readable text. Give meaningful images alternatives, and leave decorative images out of the reading task.
Keep sections in a logical order. A person using keyboard navigation should encounter the primary action in the same sensible sequence as someone scanning the screen.
Complete the primary action without a mouse.
Move through the live page with a keyboard and confirm that focus is visible and links can be activated. Test forms, embedded booking and external destinations as well as the page itself.
Ask a person unfamiliar with the page to find the action it promises. Accessibility is an ongoing check when links, colors or media change, not a badge earned at launch.
