Our values
EXCELLENCE
Excellence
Our aim is for WP-Optimize is to “just work” – elegantly and effectivly. To do this, it needs a solid foundation. Advances in features must not be through “quick hacks”, but through a base that can support users and all the different things they want to do for years ahead.
RELIABILITY
Reliability
We never hear from the vast majority of our users on any of our plugins; they “just work” for them. But, where users do have issues and questions, we’re committed to timely support provided by our knowledgeable software engineers rather than by drones who are just following a script.
INNOVATION
Innovation
For years, WP-Optimize has pioneered unique features in WordPress database optimization, such as automatically cleans up and optimizes your WordPress database without the need for phpMyAdmin.
