Why Conure
We do one thing: keep enterprise WordPress portfolios fast, secure, and current.
Founded in 2016 in Los Gatos, California. Today Conure is a specialized web operations firm, and nothing else.
Our story
From full-service agency to web operations firm.
Conure started as a full-service digital agency. Over the following years the work that mattered most to our largest clients was not the campaign work. It was the infrastructure underneath it. Keeping thirteen properties online. Getting an approved page live before a launch. Answering at 6am when a deploy went wrong.
That work required a different kind of firm: fewer disciplines, deeper ones, and engineers who know a client's environment architecture by memory. So we narrowed the company to match it.
Today Conure operates mission-critical WordPress portfolios for enterprise clients: hosting, security, maintenance, deployment, and content publishing, under one accountable team. We no longer design or build websites.
Positioning
Your creative agency designs it. We run it.
Conure is the technical partner of record. We complement agencies of record rather than compete with them: your agency delivers the build, and we provision the environments, stage it, deploy it, secure it, and keep it running.
Because we have no creative scope to protect, there is no channel conflict. Agencies recommend us because launches land on time and nothing comes back to them at 6am. Clients keep us because the sites stay up long after the campaign ends.
We do not build websites. We run them.

Principles
How we operate.
01
Direct senior-level access
You talk to the engineer who runs your sites. Not a queue, not a first-line tier, not an account manager relaying a description of the problem to someone who has never opened your environment.
02
We operate, we do not design
Your creative agency designs it. We run it. We take what your agency builds, stage it, deploy it, secure it, and keep it current, with no interest in owning the creative work.
03
Speed as a discipline
Fast response is not a personality trait. It is a small senior team, deep familiarity with each portfolio, and no internal handoffs between the person you call and the person who fixes it.
04
Ownership of outcomes
We do not hand back a diagnosis and wait. If it is in the portfolio we manage, resolving it is our job, including the parts that sit awkwardly between hosting, code, and content.
05
Security by default
Every site in an engagement carries the same protection plan. Coverage that applies only to the important properties is not coverage.
06
Discretion
Much of our work is under NDA. We do not name clients, publish logos, or use portfolios as case-study material without written permission. The case studies on this site are anonymized for that reason.
Onboarding
How onboarding works.
Five steps from first inquiry to steady-state operations. No handoffs to people who have never seen your environment.
STEP/01
T+1 BUSINESS HOUR
First response
Within one business hour a senior engineer, not a sales rep, reviews your inquiry and gets on a call. Emergencies like an active hack move straight to remediation the same day.
STEP/02
DAYS 1 TO 3
Portfolio audit
We inventory every site and environment: WordPress and PHP versions, hosting setup, security posture, uptime history, and risks. You get the findings whether or not you hire us.
STEP/03
PER SITE SCOPE
Proposal
A per-site scope and inventory with clear pricing. No bundles you do not need.
STEP/04
WEEK 01
Kickoff week
Access collection, security platform enrollment, monitoring setup, environment provisioning or migration, and DNS cutover where needed. You receive a baseline report confirming every property under management.
STEP/05
DAY 30 CHECK-IN
Ongoing operations
Updates tested on staging, 24/7 monitoring, rapid response, and a monthly report per site. First check-in call at day 30.
What we no longer do
Specialization means saying no.
- No social media management
- No advertising or paid media campaigns
- No video or creative production
- No website design or development
We do one thing: keep enterprise WordPress portfolios fast, secure, and current.
