Case Study: Datawrapper achieves 275% faster page load speeds and bulletproof security with Strattic

Datawrapper Achieves 275% Faster Page Load Speed and Bulletproof Security by Moving to Strattic

Datawrapper, an online charting tool used by major publishers and brands, needed a better way to run its website after moving from Hexo to WordPress. While WordPress made it easier for non-technical staff to publish and edit content, the new site was much slower and raised performance and security concerns.

Strattic provided the solution by migrating Datawrapper’s WordPress site to its static hosting platform with a white-glove onboarding process. The result was a major improvement in both speed and security: page load times dropped from 2.5–3 seconds to about 700–800 ms, a 275% faster load time, while also eliminating common attack vectors tied to plugins and software vulnerabilities.
