Project Brief

A major home builder faced significant challenges with their website, which frequently crashed due to high traffic and email marketing campaigns. The issues not only affected site performance but also hindered content authors' productivity. Konabos stepped in to conduct a thorough audit, identifying the root causes and implementing performance tuning measures to stabilize the website.

Challenges

For over a year, the home builder's website experienced weekly crashes, severely impacting their marketing efforts. Initial assumptions by the internal development team and Sitecore partner pointed to server or network issues, but these were ruled out after further investigation. The persistent performance problems created immense pressure to find a solution quickly. 

Our Approach

Konabos conducted comprehensive cloud-based load testing in a replicated environment to simulate high traffic. A detailed analysis of the Sitecore website was performed to identify bottlenecks, and remediation tasks were prioritized based on their impact and effort required. Fixes were implemented in the testing environment and ensured stability before moving to production. 

Results

The server load utilization was reduced from 99% to just 3%. The production website was permanently stabilized, eliminating frequent crashes. Post-production monitoring was conducted to ensure ongoing performance. Faster page loading speeds were achieved, leading to improved technical SEO and higher search engine rankings. Additionally, pressure was alleviated on the existing Sitecore partner, allowing them to focus on their upgrade project using insights gained from Konabos.
