Why did Bluehost choose to partner with Automattic and implement WP Cloud instead of developing their own solution? Why do many hosting providers struggle to deliver optimal WordPress hosting? How did WordPress become the leading CMS?
In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with:
- Jesse Friedman, Head of WP Cloud at Automattic, the company behind WordPress. Jesse is also the former co-founder of BruteProtect, now part of Jetpack after its acquisition by Automattic.
- Joshua Goode, Partner Success & Technical Account Manager at WP Cloud and Automattic, bringing over 18 years of experience in web hosting operations.
- Kevin Walker, Senior Vice President of Marketing at BlueHost, with prior marketing leadership roles at Dell, Indeed, InVision, and Issuu.
Recently, Bluehost teamed up with Automattic to integrate the WP Cloud solution, launching BlueHost Cloud. This new service offers enhanced performance, security, and scalability for more demanding WordPress sites.
