WCAG 2.4.9 Link Purpose (Link Only)
Level AAA
Stronger version of 2.4.4: link text alone describes the purpose, with no need for surrounding context.
Common failures
- Card layouts repeat "View details" as the link text for many different items.
How to fix
- Make every link self-describing ("View pricing for the Pro plan").
