We don’t just optimise websites; we optimise impact.
Webtrends Optimize are a data-driven business invested in making a difference, and that extends to the world we operate in. Sustainability for us means being conscious, intentional, and accountable in every decision we make.
We make decisions that prioritise People, protect the Planet, and serve a greater Purpose. It’s the foundation of our mission, and the measure of our success.
We’re proud to have:
Certified B Corporations, or B Corps, are companies verified to meet B Lab’s standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. Based on stakeholder input, research, and established best practices, B Lab’s standards are the basis for B Corp Certification requirements and B Lab’s impact management tools, and they inform the network’s programs and collective action initiatives.
We believe businesses are part of a community. As part of our commitment, we pay the Living Wage, invest in professional development, and support local charities and initiatives.
We believe this comes from the outside in, so we also champion equity, diversity and inclusion in our team and our partnerships, because different perspectives drive better innovation and stronger impact.
As part of our commitment to being a B Corp Certified business, we:
We recognise the impact of the digital world's footprint on the real one. That’s why we’re taking tangible steps to reduce ours - from being more energy efficient in our operations, to sustainable procurement, and responsible data practices.
Our target: Net Zero by 2030.

Working with charities is an integral part of what we do at Webtrends Optimize, and we are committed to making a difference wherever we can. As a team of people who have personally gone through difficult events and have been supported by some amazing charities, we understand how important it is to do our bit. We are constantly looking for ways we can be more involved in the local community, and what fundraisers we can engage with to raise money and spread the message about these worthy causes.
Since 2021, we have worked closely with Sussex Cricket Foundation as one of our main charity partners, as well as sponsoring their disability teams. The aim of the Foundation is to actively change lives through cricket across the community, and they have been incredibly successful with this. Every May, we volunteer at their annual DIScoverABILITY Day, held at the County Ground in Hove, which is an incredibly rewarding experience for our whole team. We offer our whole team 2 paid days of volunteering a year, meaning they can choose to support another charity close to their hearts alongside working with Sussex Cricket Foundation.
We have proudly supported Cancer Research UK for over 5 years, and this is something we continue to feel passionate about. There are many ways you can support Cancer Research UK, but our main goal is to fundraise for them. Every donation makes a difference, so we have taken part in multiple opportunities available to us over the past couple of years, ranging from fitness challenges or bake offs, to sponsored balls and events.
Webtrends Optimize CEO, Matt Smith, is also an advocate and ambassador for The Starr Trust, a charity dedicated to providing support to young people and removing any roadblocks that might hinder their success. Webtrends Optimize have proudly supported The Starr Trust over the last 3 years, sponsoring and attending events, taking part in fundraising initiatives, and most recently, Matt has been part of two bike ride challenges, which collectively, have raised nearly £10,000.
Sustainability isn’t static. It’s an ongoing process of measurement, learning and adaptation. We’ll continue to refine our impact reporting, collaborate with our peers, and align with frameworks that push us further.
We will continue to follow the JEDI (Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion) framework when making decisions about building teams, cultivating leaders, and ensuring our business is a force for good. We recognise the fundamental injustice and inequity many groups in society face, and part of our ongoing work is to build a community that supports this and looks to dismantle any barriers.
We are committed to embedding lasting, value-led change at every level of the organisation. With the support of Boxless, we will continue to follow a structured approach make impactful changes across all levels of Webtrends Optimize.
We’re not perfect — but we are intentional.
