As you may remember, the Firstgiving tech team spent a big chunk of their 4th of July weekend upgrading our infrastructure, and I’m not talking about the new fridge. We migrated all our hosting services to a new provider with the intent of delivering faster-downloading fundraising pages.

I recently got hold of this chart, which clearly shows (even before I added the orange arrow) that average download time decreased greatly and immediately after the migration. Even the occasional peaks – representing slow times – are a fraction of their prior size.

Strong infrastructure is part of our commitment to NPOs, fundraisers and donors to deliver the best social platform for fundraising we can. We’re very proud to see the good use you’re all making of it.
