Sites we have audited
A rolling list of Australian websites we have run a WCAG 2.2 AA conformance review against, with summary scores and notes.
This is a rolling list of Australian websites against which we have run a WCAG 2.2 AA conformance review. Reviews are editorial, conducted to support our published guidance with real-world case material. Some are paid commercial audits where we have published a summary with the client's permission; others are independent reference scans run as part of comparative research.
Each entry records the audit period, the standard reviewed against, and a short summary of findings. Where a site has a remediation roadmap or has already remediated, that is noted. Where outstanding gaps exist, we describe them in general terms rather than offering a defect list.
How sites are added to this list
Sites appear here when we have completed a structured review, the site owner has consented to publication of the summary, and the result is materially useful to readers. We do not accept payment for inclusion. Site owners can request inclusion via the contact page.
Brisbane Lawn Mowing
Service-business site (Brisbane). Strong on heading structure, mobile target sizing and form accessibility. Skip link present, focus indicators consistent, all primary call-to-action paths operable by keyboard alone. Single minor finding: pricing-page table benefits from explicit caption. Audited against WCAG 2.2 AA.
SEQ Drone Inspections
Service-business site (South East Queensland). Aerial-inspection contractor. Audited as a reference for service-area pages that combine geographic content with a gallery of technical imagery. Landmarks present, heading hierarchy clean, gallery images have meaningful alt text rather than filename strings, contact options offered in multiple formats (form, phone, email) which supports users with different access needs. Service-area pages use plain language for radius descriptions rather than mapping-only. Findings: a small number of decorative icons in the service-icon strip benefit from explicit aria-hidden, and the footer phone number is not wrapped in a tel: link on a single deeper page. Both are quick fixes. Audited against WCAG 2.2 AA.
ACT Government, Accessibility statement
Reviewed as a reference example of a published accessibility statement. Conforms to AA across the audited journey (homepage to accessibility statement to contact). Plain-language commitment, named contact, explicit complaint path.
NSW Department of Customer Service, Accessibility hub
Strong accessibility hub. Heading hierarchy clean, focus visible, landmarks present. Reviewed as part of a procurement-framework reference scan, not a paid audit.
Australian Human Rights Commission, Disability rights
Strong on content structure and reading order. Two findings: a small number of brand-coloured links fall below 4.5:1 against pale-tint backgrounds in the resources sidebar; a video-embed page is missing audio description. Scope: top-level disability rights section.
Vision Australia, Digital Access services
As expected for an organisation that runs accessibility consulting, conforms cleanly to AA across the audited journey. Reviewed as a reference benchmark.
Methodology
Each audit consists of three stages: an automated scan using axe DevTools 4.8 and Pa11y CLI 8.0 across a representative sample of pages; a manual keyboard-only walkthrough of the primary user task; and a screen reader pass using VoiceOver on Safari iOS at minimum, with NVDA on Windows where the audit scope is enterprise. Results are validated against WCAG 2.2 Level AA success criteria.
Where issues are found, we follow up with the site owner before publishing summary findings, and we honour any reasonable confidentiality request on specific defects. The summary lines above are written so that they support readers using this page as a reference, without exposing site-specific defect lists publicly.
What an "AA pass" actually means
For the purposes of this list, an "AA pass" verdict means: across the audited journey, no Level A or AA WCAG 2.2 success criterion was found to fail in a way that would block a typical user with disability from completing the primary task. It does not mean every page on the site has been tested, or that every possible criterion has been examined. Accessibility conformance is always sample-bounded; a clean audit is a snapshot, not a guarantee.
Want a site listed?
If you operate an Australian website and want it considered for review, see the contact page. Editorial reviews are unpaid and limited; commercial audits are paid engagements. Either way, we do not accept payment for placement on this list, and we publish a summary regardless of result.
