Tenacity

Based in St. Louis, Missouri, Tenacity is a small WordPress development and managed services agency serving businesses across the country rather than a single regional market. The team works with organizations that depend on their website functioning as a business tool rather than a static asset, including entities such as a nonprofit entrepreneurship center, a security firm, a music education franchise, and a CPG-focused agency. Its stated approach draws on more than 25 years of experience addressing the recurring cycle of WordPress problems: something breaks, someone scrambles to fix it, and the underlying cause is never resolved. Services center on WordPress rather than a broad multi-platform offering. These include ongoing WordPress maintenance (updates, monitoring, and troubleshooting), custom WordPress design and development built around a client's content and goals, page speed optimization targeting Core Web Vitals, managed WordPress hosting on dedicated VPS resources with proactive monitoring and backups, and WordPress security services covering hardening, monitoring, and incident response. Engagements begin with a free consultation in which the client describes the issue, followed by an assessment and scoping stage that defines expected work before it starts. The agency also lists SEO, general web design, web development, and IT managed services among its declared capabilities, positioning WordPress performance, security, and upkeep as the core of its work for companies with an existing site rather than one built from scratch.
