­We believe that great websites are not only fast and visible in search results—they're also usable by everyone. Accessibility isn't an optional add-on; it's a core part of modern web optimization, user experience, and legal responsibility.

We integrate regular accessibility audits and proactive compliance planning into all of our monthly SEO plans. This means your site gets ongoing checks for common barriers, helping you stay ahead of issues without needing a separate vendor or one-time overhaul. While no service can guarantee instant full compliance (due to site complexity, CMS limitations, third-party tools, and evolving standards), our approach keeps your site moving consistently in the right direction.

When accessibility testing comes up, mobile devices are often mentioned—but the testing itself usually stops too early.

A common pattern we see is testing a site on mobile at 100% zoom, confirming it looks fine, and moving on.

As the April 2026 accessibility deadline approaches, many small municipalities and public organizations are only now realizing what’s required — and how much work may be involved.

If that sounds familiar, you’re not behind because you didn’t care. You’re behind because accessibility requirements weren’t always this clear, budgets are tight, and most local governments don’t have full-time web teams.

We work with organizations in that exact position.

“Nate has been our website consultant since 2009 and his value as a trusted advisor continues to grow. Nate helped us redesign our website last year and we were very happy with the fresh new look and keen marketing suggestions he provided. We have always found Nate to be responsive and reliable and we value his perspective and support.”

Three separate business units, one umbrella company. How to organize it all? Divide, conquer, and cross-promote.

“We’ve been impressed with Nate’s responsiveness to our ever-changing website design needs. His service is fast and accurate, and he has done a great job at creating a nice looking and functional site.”
- Kent Gerhart, Canon Capital

We built this site for the Helen L. Diller Vacation Home for Blind Children.  The site is powered by an open-source Content Management System, which allows the home's staff to post news and announcements to the site, update photo galleries, and more.  The site also features powerful forms for collecting camper applications, employment applications, and parent surveys.

Freddy Hill Farms & Fun Center came to us with the need to update their own web site.  We redesigned and rebuilt their web site using a Content Management System, which allows them to add announcements, events, and multimedia to the site.

"Nate's inside-out knowledge of Joomla provides BlattCom with the programming expertise to build user-friendly websites that our clients can easily maintain themselves. Great to work with - he has been very responsive and proactive in suggesting solutions to improving functionality. I look forward to creating more websites with Nate, including a rebuild of my own site!"

"I very much enjoyed working with Nate Covington on the redesign of the National Docent Symposium Council website. We are a unique organization and have different needs and Nate was very willing to learn about our organization and how it is structured. In working with him there are three things that stood out:

1. His reliability. He always answered my email and did what he said he would do. He is quick to post additions to our site.
2. His willingness to make changes based on our needs, and an honesty to tell me when what I wanted wouldn’t work, and to make suggestions that would work.
3. His help to me so that I could learn to do some of the posting and make some of the changes. He is also very patient in answering questions, no matter how obvious or trivial.

From beginning to end it was a good experience."

Harriet Neal, President
National Docents Symposium Council

"As a photographer, I had special requirements when redesigning  my webpage. I knew that Nate was the person to help me, because I had worked with him before in designing a site for a National organization to which I belong. I was not disappointed! Nate was as professional and prompt as he had been in my previous experience in working with him. He also understood my needs in promoting my images, and has taught me how to upload new images onto my pages. I wish that other people that I deal with had his work ethic and creative sense. Thanks Nate, you made the whole process a good experience for me."
