About SiteCare

We’re on a mission to make business leaders proud and confident of their WordPress websites.

Every day, we empower millions of people like you – the readers, learners, shoppers, and business owners – who rely on WordPress websites. Thousands of companies trust SiteCare’s data-driven performance metrics to help ensure their websites thrive.

Our Story

Fueled by a passion for the web, SiteCare founder Drew Barton juggled his overnight shift at CNN.com with freelance gigs in the early 2000s. Many of those early clients remain part of our community to this day, a testament to the trust and relationships we build.

From beginnings in a spare bedroom, SiteCare (formerly Southern Web Group) quickly outgrew its cozy confines. This entrepreneurial spirit led us to dedicated office space, fostering team collaboration and growth. However, by 2018, a yearning for flexibility and global talent led us to a bold decision: embracing a fully remote work model. Ditching the cubicles, we transformed into a distributed workforce, seamlessly adapting to the challenges of the pandemic and the needs of a global workforce.

SiteCare’s growth has been, in part, fueled by the acquisition of other companies. Over the last decade, SiteCare has acquired five firms: WP Site Care (2018), Web Considerations (2019), Firing Squad (2020), Maintainn (2022), and Smarter Searches (2023).

Today, SiteCare is laser-focused on unlocking the true potential of every WordPress site. Our secret weapon? A proprietary scoring system that pinpoints the root causes of common issues, acting as your website’s health check. With this intel, we offer a suite of targeted services, guaranteeing optimal performance for thousands of WordPress sites worldwide.
