DevEdge worked closely with Rachel to modernise and rebuild the School of Contemplative Life website. Alongside the redesign, we migrated the website and email systems, implemented SEO improvements, added ad fraud protection, and provided support for Meta advertising.

The website continues to run on the DevEdge managed hosting platform, delivering high-performance WordPress infrastructure with proactive monitoring and dedicated website support to maintain performance, security, and long-term growth.
