WP Engine partners with Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud Platform to build your websites on the same industry-leading architecture those companies use to power their own digital experiences. Global data centers and cloud coverage ensure your site is available and loading fast no matter where your visitors are in the world. And, with WP Engine optimizing these cloud environments for you, you can spend your technical resources building beautiful experiences instead of the systems to power them.
Emily Gall – WPEngine has been a dream to work with. As a small agency, I’m really looking for the best service at the best value when it comes to hosting for my clients. WPEngine delivers everything I need including AMAZING support, a learnable interface, insights and most importantly reliable, lightning fast hosting services. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a high-powered hosting service.
I contacted WP Engine several times during testing—early morning and midday—to get a sense of its support team's effectiveness. I called to discover how to install new WodPress themes, and then used the web chat to contact a representative who would explain SSL certificates. The team answered both questions, and a few miscellaneous others, accurately and quickly, after short wait times.
Shortly after Google Penguin (which WHSR took a big hit), I decided to change and started rebuilding everything from ground zero. The idea was to grow WHSR into a web service provider, build a community around ourselves, and rely less on Google traffic. That was the time when WHSR Uptime Monitor was made and we switched back to conventional VPS hosting environment.
The hosting itself is fine. But I think they reel in a lot of people that don't know much about wordpress and more or less take advantage of that by charging an exuberant amount per month for hosting. I've been in this game a while and I know what is a decent price and what is is not. I got a good deal with WP Engine so I signed up with them. That's the only reason I signed up. Hopefully they still honor the deal in the coming year but I doubt they will. My websites are running super fast so it'll be a shame if I have to leave.
