The Problem
We were previously using acomplicated hosting providerwith a custom plan and relied on an outside agency to maintain our servers and backups.
“With Google’s Page Experience Update rolling out in June 2021, we were motivated to make some long-needed changes to our website tobetter optimize for Core Web Vitals,page speed, and ouroverall organic visibility.
Our team decided to make the most of its limited resources and be strategic about our redesign. Instead of an entire website overhaul that traditional redesigns call for, we decided to first focus onfoundational updatesthat would improvepage speed and usability. Our goal was to make the websitefasterand moreuser-friendlyfor our visitors, as well as more easily manageable by our team.”
The Solution
Since we wanted to make our website easy to manage for our internal team, it was important to have a host that not onlyperformed well in terms of speed and optimizationbut was alsostraightforward to use.
“The first step we took was finding a new hosting provider with optimized delivery,WordPress performance monitoring, easy-to-use staging environments, and backups to bring website management back in-house. We also utilized the research and testing the Kinsta team had done to find afast WordPress themeto help further improve performance.
Some stats on performance before the changes:
Page performance score on GTmetrix was B (81%) not bad, but room for improvement
PageSpeed Insights score on desktop of 57/100
Did not pass Core Web Vitals assessment
PureVisibility.com ranked organically for 2841 keywords, with 421 of those ranked on page one of results
The costwas also a factor, as our marketing team was hoping to reduce overall spending for our website.We found Kinsta servers to be much more affordablethan what we were currently using, but with many of the same offerings as larger competitors. The user interface for the admin panel wasmore intuitive, withstraightforward documentationin the knowledge base.”
