data.world’s website was full of bugs and adding new features was a nightmare. We rebuilt it to automate processes, letting the client focus on marketing strategies instead of website issues.
data.world is a cloud-native SaaS (software-as-a-service) that helps users discover, manage, and use data more effectively through a user-friendly interface and powerful tools.
data.world’s website was slow to update, had many bugs, and was difficult to change. Even small updates needed help from developers.
We rebuilt the website using Statamic’s best practices, automated the deployment process, and simplified the Control Panel for easy content management.
The new website is 160% faster, scores higher in accessibility, best practices, and SEO, and allows the client to deploy updates in under an hour without developer assistance.
Working with Lucky Media has been an absolute dream! Partnering closely with Lokman and his team, they’ve taken our website from ’broken’ to highly functional in just a matter of months.

The existing website had several issues that were slowing down the business’s ability to grow and focus on its goals.
- Slow deployment: It took weeks to launch new features because deployments were slow and manual.
- Frequent bugs: There were frequent bugs that affected user experience.
- Dependence on developers: The client couldn’t use the Statamic Control Panel effectively and even small updates required help from developers.
- Poor performance: The site performed poorly in terms of speed, accessibility, and SEO.
We transformed data.world’s website into a fast, reliable, and easy-to-manage platform. Here’s how we addressed their challenges.
We automated the entire process and eliminated the need for manual, time-consuming deployments. This meant the client could push updates to the live website with a single click. We significantly reduced build times by separating large assets like images into a different droplet. This approach saved hours of developer effort and allowed data.world to launch new features and updates in under an hour - down from three days.
Why this matters: If your team is spending too much time on manual deployments or struggling with slow update cycles, automation can streamline your workflow, reduce costs, and accelerate your time-to-market.
Technical deep dive: By automating the deployment and separating assets into a different droplet, we reduced deployment time from three days to under an hour. (blog post coming soon)
We made the backend user-friendly, so the client could update content without needing developers. By breaking the website into modular building blocks, we empowered the data.world to add, modify, or reorganize content without needing a developer. For example, they could easily remove a team module from the homepage and create a separate team page, or embed videos directly into posts. We also set up required fields and validation rules to prevent errors and ensure consistency.
Why this matters for you: If your team relies on developers for simple content updates, a modular and user-friendly Control Panel can give you full control over your website, saving time and reducing dependency on technical staff.
Technical deep dive: We implemented modular building blocks, allowing the client to add, modify, or reorganize content effortlessly. (blog post coming soon)
We upgraded the website to the latest version of Statamic and optimized it for speed, accessibility, and SEO. By implementing advanced caching techniques, optimizing images, and using modern front-end technologies, we made the website 160% faster. These improvements enhanced the user experience and boosted the website’s Google Lighthouse scores for performance, accessibility, best practices, and SEO.
Why this matters for you: A slow or poorly optimized website can drive users away and hurt your search engine rankings. Performance optimization ensures your site is fast, accessible, and ranks higher in search results, driving more traffic and engagement.
Technical deep dive: By upgrading to the latest Statamic version and optimizing assets, we made the website faster and improved its SEO rankings. (blog post coming soon)
We successfully migrated hundreds of blog posts and other content from the old website to the new platform. Our process included rigorous testing to ensure that all content, formatting, and media files were accurately transferred. We also fixed issues with custom code to ensure a seamless transition.
Why this matters for you: If you’re planning a website overhaul, a smooth content migration process is critical to preserving your SEO rankings and ensuring a consistent user experience. Our expertise ensures that no data is lost, and your new site is ready to go live without hiccups.
Technical deep dive: The migration included older blog posts inherited from WordPress. We reorganized the entire website, and we had to change the blueprints on all the content.
