WP Engine

WP Engine is known for speed. As one of the top managed WordPress hosting companies worldwide, improving the speed of your website could be as simple as changing your WordPress hosting provider to WP Engine.

WP Engine offers a speed tool, which requires you enter personal information including your website address and email. The report is stored and emailed allowing you to share with colleagues. The report contains valuable information about speed, security, possible improvements, and its ‘chacheability’.

Other than WP Engine’s official speed tool, there are numerous other speed tools that will give you a clearer picture on what improvements are required to improve your website load time.

Almost all website speed testing tools are based on Google PageSpeed Insights aka Lighthouse.

However sometimes having a different UI, or a combination of tools better suits your fancy.

I highly recommend and use frequently GTmetrix.

There’s also Pingdom and WebPageTest

No Comments on WP Engine Go Live Checklist

One of the great features of WP Engine hosting is their Go Live Checklist, a customer guide to launching a website. Useful for beginners and intermediate webmasters alike, this tool walks a customer through the required and recommended steps for building and launching a website.

The guide covers such topics as adding your domain, updating DNS records, ordering SSL certificates, adding content, selecting a theme as well as bonus section on plugins, SEO and caching.

The checklist displays for new WordPress installs 45 days after creation or 10 days after the traffic milestone is met.

WP Engine also has a great guide on Getting Started with WP Engine, useful for those new to the platform.
