Case Study: David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation boosts engagement and revenue with WP Engine and StrategiQ

David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation boosts engaged sessions 56% with WP Engine

The David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation, a wildlife conservation charity, faced challenges with its outdated WordPress website, including poor performance, security vulnerabilities, and SEO penalties that suppressed its online visibility. The organization engaged agency partner StrategiQ, which leveraged WP Engine's managed WordPress hosting platform, to rebuild and secure the site to drive organic growth and revenue.

By migrating the foundation to WP Engine, StrategiQ enhanced site security and performance while implementing a new SEO strategy and a streamlined, mobile-friendly design. The results were significant: SEO penalties were resolved, leading to improved rankings and a 25% year-over-year growth in donations. User engagement also increased, with a 56% rise in engaged sessions per user and a 44% increase in average engagement time.
