Performance and Security Matter
Having a site that loads fast is not the point.
Having a fast, secure site that makes you money is.
I can help you find that balance.
Discover what the real speed drags are on your site and which ones have ROI or need to go.
And plug all the security holes that are chewing up your hosting resources.
Read This: Sites must be in working condition for the audit.
If you need immediate troubleshooting, contact me about that first.
Audits require cPanel access. Managed hosting doesn’t allow access to all the data we need.
Plug the Holes
On average I find 26 security holes and performance drains that no plugin or scanner catches. Plus, get checked for plugin conflicts, misconfigured plugins, hosting resource hogs, orphaned files, bloated databases, abandoned sites, and so much more.
Site Audit Plus Perks
An audit is a super education that empowers you to be a confident DIY site owner. Plus, you’ll be invited to join our exclusive Facebook group and member site. Both are full of great folks, rich resources, and quick checks to keep your site humming right along.
BlogAid lets me focus on my passion
MaAnna performed a full site audit and taught me how to be a responsible, informed DIY site owner. I’m still not a tech expert, but I’m no longer afraid of technology. Now I can focus on my passion for writing. [more]

Why panic when I know how to DIY my own site!
My new site that was image heavy due to tutorials. Not only was I impressed with how thorough the audit and HTTPS conversion was, I left feeling like I took one of her courses with the knowledge that I gained from it. My husband and I ‘DIY’ most things…..and now that includes my website:) [more]
Kathleen Rupp
Consistent effort to go above and beyond
After MaAnna’s website audit my load speed dropped by 65%. She saved me time by pinpointing performance issues and potential security risks I couldn’t figure out on my own. Her audit was thorough and I was able to easily implement her suggestions within a couple of days. [more]

Prevention is the key!
It’s a whale of a lot cheaper and less chaotic to do a site audit BEFORE the bots attack or your site is hacked.
Audits are not a substitute for troubleshooting. Audits are to identify security and performance issues. If you suspect that your site has been hacked or has a known issue, we’ll need to get that fixed first. And then do the audit.
