The ChallengeNon-WordPress hosting held back growth
Managing sites overwhelmed Iovate’s IT resources, leading to sluggish site speeds and operational friction across its brand portfolio. The team needed agile tools to support ecommerce growth and faster brand launches.
-
The SolutionManaged platform, built to scale
Iovate migrated to WP Engine’s managed platform, adopting Genesis-powered themes and Application Performance Monitoring across dev-stage-production environments to support rapid, repeatable brand launches.
ResultsFaster launches, measurable gains
After initially joining in 2017, Iovate launched three new brands in 2020 using WP Engine’s platform — XP Sports, Conscious Kitchen, and Cut Energy. For current brands, site page speed and server performance weren’t the only bonuses. Iovate saw a 26% performance boost specifically on Hydroxycut, its flagship site, and 50-60% gains on Purely Inspired and MuscleTech after switching to Genesis.
