Having good contrast and readability are an important part of creating an accessible website. One trick you can do to test whether or not your contrast is sufficient enough is by using your mobile device.
- Set the brightness of your mobile device to its lowest setting.
- Open up your website on the device and begin browsing around.
If you find something difficult to read, congrats, you found an accessibility issue!
Tested daverupert.com with my Motorola DroidX2 Android v2.3.5 using native google browser.
