Our view at Stack - we've been using WP Engine in our business for 12 years so that should say it all! WP Engine offers optimized performance, enterprise-grade security, award-winning support, unique WordPress features, scalability, and developer trust. So what makes wp engine hosting different? If you want the best hosting then WP Engine is the answer 🚀🌟
This year’s Crafted With Code showcase has already highlighted five projects recognized by the Webby Awards and WP Engine, each featuring beautifully designed, highly accessible digital experiences.Â
Now, Crafted With Code is shining a light on some of the most performant projects submitted to the Webbys this year.
The Webby Awards exist to honor excellence online, and for the past five years, WP Engine has partnered with the organization to curate Crafted with Code: a digital showcase that provides a deep dive into the stories and strategies behind WordPress-powered, Webby-recognized websites.
Through video interviews with the teams responsible for these projects, Crafted With Code provides a backstory to explain the whos, hows, and whys that go into building top-tier websites using WordPress.
“Performance is the top priority for our customers when building a website, and it’s the cornerstone of what we do at WP Engine,” said WP Engine Director of Brand Regina Yuan.Â
“We take immense pride in delivering that level of excellence and are excited to partner with the Webby Awards to highlight WordPress sites that exemplify this commitment to performance.”
Second edition: Digital performance
Crafted With Code has already released the first batch of recognized projects for 2024, each being lauded for excellent use of design principles and accessible navigation.
Now, we have entered the second phase of the Crafted With Code showcase, which features projects that represent the theme of performance. Each of these digital experiences is designed to deliver lightning-fast load times, seamless user experiences, and optimized content delivery, all powered by WordPress.
Later in the year, the showcase will release its final collection, which will explore the theme of innovation by highlighting sites using cutting-edge WordPress technology to tell their stories.
This year’s high-performing projects
To give you a taste of what’s in store, here are a few of the projects highlighted by this year’s Crafted with Code showcase that were built on WP Engine’s world-class WordPress hosting platform.
These sites do more than perform well—they serve as prime examples of how WordPress can be leveraged to create digital experiences that are fast, responsive, and robust enough to meet the demands of today’s internet users.
