The fastest websites
in the Treasure Valley.
We use Astro — a cutting-edge static site framework — deployed on Cloudflare's global edge network to build websites that load in under half a second, score 95–100 on Google PageSpeed, and almost never go down.
Why Astro + Cloudflare is different.
Most websites run on a server that has to do work every time someone visits. Ours don't.
Astro — Build Time, Not Runtime
Traditional sites like WordPress build the page every time a visitor arrives — hitting a database, running PHP, assembling HTML on the fly. That's why they're slow.
Astro builds your entire site once, at deploy time, into pure, static HTML files. When a visitor arrives, the server literally just sends a file. No database calls, no processing time. That's why we load in milliseconds.
Cloudflare — Delivered from Everywhere
Even the fastest site feels slow if the server is in New York and your customer is in Boise. Cloudflare solves this with 200+ edge nodes across the globe — including locations close to the Treasure Valley.
Your site sits on Cloudflare's edge network, not a single server. Every visitor gets it from the closest location. That's why we're fast everywhere, not just sometimes.
Why Speed = More Customers
Google uses page speed as a ranking factor. Slow sites rank lower, period. But speed also directly affects whether visitors stay or leave:
- • 53% of mobile visitors leave if a page takes > 3 seconds
- • 1s delay reduces conversions by ~7%
- • Core Web Vitals are now a Google ranking signal
Security as a Default
Static Astro sites have no database, no PHP runtime, no login page — which means there's dramatically less attack surface than WordPress. Cloudflare adds another layer:
- • DDoS protection automatically included
- • Web Application Firewall (WAF) on enterprise infrastructure
- • SSL/HTTPS always on — zero config needed
