Not All Website Hosts Are Created Equal
Why WP Engine is Our Go-To for Performance, Security, and Scale
What if your website host was silently costing you leads, SEO rankings, and revenue?
Most businesses assume their hosting is “fine”, until their site crashes during a campaign, loads too slowly on mobile, or becomes a security liability. This is where WP Engine comes in.
At b10, we’ve tested numerous WordPress hosting providers, and one thing is clear: not all website hosts are created equal. In this post, you’ll learn why WP Engine is our go-to for WordPress hosting, what that means for your business, and how better hosting translates into real commercial outcomes.
What Do We Mean by Website Hosting?
Your website is only as strong as the server it runs on.
Website hosting is the infrastructure that powers your website — where all your content, images, code, and data live.
Choosing the right website hosting provider impacts everything from site speed and security to SEO performance and customer trust.
At b10, we only recommend solutions that directly support business growth, and WP Engine leads the pack.
The Problem With “Good Enough” Website Hosting
Slow sites, poor security, lost leads — “cheap” hosting costs more than you think.
Let’s be honest, most businesses pick hosting based on price or convenience. But here’s what usually happens:
We’ve seen too many clients with visually beautiful websites let down by subpar infrastructure. It’s like building a Ferrari and putting lawnmower fuel in the tank.
What is WP Engine?
A premium hosting platform engineered for performance, security, and scale.
WP Engine is the world’s leading managed WordPress hosting platform trusted by 10,000+ agencies and powering over 1.5 million websites globally. It’s not just “hosting”, it’s a performance-first infrastructure designed to help businesses build, launch, and grow faster without worrying about scale, security, or speed.
Unlike generic WordPress hosting providers, WP Engine is tailored specifically for WordPress. With world-class servers (powered by AWS, GCP, and Azure), proprietary caching (EverCache®), and 24/7 expert support, it provides the technical backbone your website needs to succeed.
From startups to Fortune 500 brands, WP Engine is the trusted choice when performance is non-negotiable, security is mission-critical, and growth is the goal.
Why b10 Chooses WP Engine
We don’t compromise on performance, protection, or scale and neither should you.
At b10, we’re not just building websites, we’re engineering growth machines.
That’s why we exclusively use WP Engine for serious commercial builds. It’s not just a website host, it’s a platform designed for performance, scalability, and peace of mind.
Here’s how it aligns with our philosophy:
The Benefits for You
Here’s how WP Engine unlocks time, trust, and growth.
Blazing speed and SEO performance
Faster websites rank higher. WP Engine’s EverCache® technology and global CDN (200+ points of presence) boost your load times by up to 128% on mobile and 30% on desktop. This means lower bounce rates, better SEO, and more conversions — all from day one.
What if every second your site saved delivered more traffic, trust, and transactions?
Security You Don’t Have to Think About
WP Engine blocks over 26 billion attacks annually with proactive security measures like a managed WAF, DDoS protection, and encrypted routing. You also get automatic plugin and theme updates, with rollback functionality — giving you peace of mind and hours back every month.
Let your team focus on growth — we’ll handle everything else.
Seamless Scalability from Day One
Whether you’re running local campaigns or hitting national scale, WP Engine’s infrastructure expands effortlessly. From small brochure sites to high-volume platforms, your hosting grows as your business grows — no migration nightmares, no crashes during traffic spikes.
Built to scale with your ambition.
Developer Power, Without the Pain
Staging environments, automated Git workflows, headless WordPress options, and premium onboarding mean your developers get control — and your marketers stay agile. We turn those tools into tangible results, so you move faster without bottlenecks.
You shouldn’t need to choose between flexibility and speed. With WP Engine, you get both.
Real ROI from Every Click
Speed = revenue. WP Engine ensures that your PPC, SEO, and campaign traffic converts instead of bounces. Combine that with fewer outages and stronger SEO, and the ROI speaks for itself.
Let’s turn your website into a high-performance growth asset.
Imagine running a retail shop in a high-footfall area. Would you accept flickering lights, dodgy locks, and staff that might not show up tomorrow?
Of course not.
Your website is your digital storefront and WP Engine is the rock-solid foundation it needs.
It’s time to treat hosting as a strategy with WP Engine
Many businesses see hosting as a checkbox. But the truth?
Website hosting is a strategic decision that affects speed, trust, visibility, and conversions.
