Expanding the Global Reach of Our #1 WordPress Platform

WP Engine, the WordPress technology company, is extending its global presence and performance with expanded offerings in the Nordics, Israel, and Singapore. 

Offering the fastest managed platform for WordPress, WP Engine provides WordPress users with the best way to build and host incredible websites—no matter where in the world they’re located.

Now serving more than 200,000 customers in 150 countries, WP Engine proudly offers wide data center optionality on multiple continents, offering customers access to the plans, cloud providers, and regions of their choice.

With the launch of a new region in Tel Aviv, WP Engine is excited to bring its industry-leading WordPress platform closer than ever to our customers in Israel, who can now benefit from: 

• Reduced round-trip latency for domestic website visitors
• Even faster and more efficient website site speed and performance
• Improvements to SEO and user experience due to improved site performance and load times 

While we announced similar launches in Finland and Singapore last year, those customers now have the option to choose from all of our plan types to better meet their specific business needs.  

“These recent updates represent an exciting path forward as we expand our global footprint,” said WP Engine VP of Product Keith Fafel. 

“The launch of our platform in Israel highlights our continued growth into new markets and regions,” he added. “And with wider optionality now available in the Nordics and in Singapore, we’re showcasing our ongoing commitment to the regions we already have a presence in, making sure our customers there have the flexibility they need to meet their business goals.”    

A Trusted WordPress Partner 

WP Engine has focused on optimizing WordPress sites for more than a decade, and throughout that period, WordPress has continued to grow and mature into a powerful framework for building and managing websites across a wide list of industries and use cases. 

Today, WordPress is the most popular CMS in the world, thanks in large part to its ease of use for both content creators and developers. Additionally, WordPress is open source, meaning it’s not only supported by an active community of users, but it’s also free from upfront and recurring licensing fees tied to the core software itself. 

WordPress is also renowned for its flexibility, including the ability to integrate with a wide range of features and functionality through its massive repository of plugins and themes. 

In addition to ease of use, lower cost, and streamlined creative workflows, WordPress gives you complete and total ownership over your website and your data should you choose to migrate to a different platform or host. 

For site builders who rely on WordPress for their digital projects, WP Engine’s portfolio of market-leading developer tools includes some of the most beloved and widely-used solutions in the WordPress ecosystem, including: 

• Local, the #1 Local WordPress development tool. 
• Advanced Custom Fields, WP Migrate, and additional WordPress builder plugins. 
• Genesis, the #1 WordPress theme framework. 
• Atlas Content Modeler, which simplifies the development of content models for headless WordPress sites. 

While all of these tools can be used with any web host, WordPress builders who power their sites on WP Engine’s platform gain the added benefit of offloading maintenance and optimizations to a trusted WordPress partner, so they can focus on putting these tools to use. 

Additionally, WP Engine provides solutions for advanced security, including Global Edge Security, which offers DDoS mitigation and a managed WAF, as well as Smart Plugin Manager, which automatically runs pre-scheduled plugin and theme updates to reduce the threat of unpatched vulnerabilities. 

As we continue to invest in and grow our tools and technology, we look forward to working with our customers around the world as they build amazing digital experiences with WordPress.
