The ChallengeA CMS that couldn’t keep up with the firm
McGuireWoods needed a unified multisite setup for content syndication, improved search across attorney bios and resources, and gains in performance, SEO, and usability, all without disrupting an active, content-heavy site.

The SolutionAn enterprise multisite, built to scale
To enhance scalability and performance while streamlining content management, Americaneagle.com migrated the McGuireWoods website to an enterprise-grade multisite environment on WP Engine’s managed hosting platform.
A seamless data migration preserved content integrity, while stronger search capabilities improved discovery site-wide. Custom API integration, advanced taxonomies, and print-to-PDF functionality enhanced usability, and comprehensive training empowered McGuireWoods’ internal teams to manage and scale their digital presence.
ResultsA foundation built for every office and practice area
The new multisite structure centralizes content across practice areas and offices, with Core Web Vitals optimizations improving load times and responsiveness, and a custom API syncing with the firm’s internal staff directory to keep attorney listings current in real time.
