Project Overview
The PageSpeed Matters team was brought on to resolve the website speed issues on the Sana Benefits website. This involved collaborating with the internal marketing team, optimizing and testing performance changes on a staging environment, and coordinating a go-live date.
When the Sana Benefits Marketing team engaged PageSpeed Matters, the primary challenge was with the desktop landing pages.
