Founder of FatLab, LLC, Shane mostly works from the shores of Costa Rica. However, it’s not all cold beer and warm sand as Shane manages day to day operations and does development.

Dolores has been working with the FatLab team for over 15 years! However, in 2020 she (and Odie) made the leap from the client side to our side. She now works on new business development.

A client for over 15 years before joining FatLab, Ritz refuses to call herself an ’empty nester’ because Cooper the Shih Tzu keeps her life busy. Ritz works as a project and content manager.
The American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (ABFPRS), a medical certification organization, does not have the technical resources in-house to manage our web presence. We rely on FatLab to help keep our website up to date, consult on best practices and ensure it remains online and stable for our membership and the public.
FatLab has been an invaluable partner to Sage Growth Partners for many years, we look no further when our client campaigns include web development, support and hosting services. As virtual members to our team, we know FatLab will get the job done no matter how complex or timely.
Fatlab has been an invaluable partner for Andigo New Media for more than 4 years. We regularly rely on the FatLab team to help us support and maintain many of our client websites. They keep us informed and have never failed to deliver, even under the tightest deadlines.
The Club for Growth has been working with FatLab since day one. We have planned, developed and maintained many websites together during that time. FatLab has been there for us each and every time we have needed quick action, long term strategy or even simple updates. The FatLab team is a critical resource to our organization.
It hasn’t mattered if it is the middle of the day, late at night, the weekend or 5:00pm on Friday. When something urgent has come up, FatLab has responded with a solution within minutes each and every time. This is why we continue our 4+ year relationship with them.
FatLab took over our hosting and website maintenance three years ago. FatLab has since provided all the services our previous major hosting provider lacked (firewall, backups, malware scans and more) and most importantly they have proven to be a reliable and trustworthy partner.
We migrated our site to FatLab after becoming increasingly disappointed in the level of support provided by two major hosting companies. FatLab has filled this need for us by providing timely and reliable support each and every time we have needed it.
Consider us your dedicated WordPress webmasters. We are available to help squash bugs, fix annoyances, and enhance your website over time.
We are a web support company – maintaining your website and supporting your web presence is our primary focus. We are not here to sell you a new website. We are here to solve your web support issues as quickly and smoothly as possible.
We work with you to help protect your investment and improve it. We add new features, fix what’s broken, and make it easier for you to administrate.
Our website maintenance services are going to help keep your website up to date, secure, and performing at its highest level.
We offer several monthly website maintenance plans that include web uptime, downtime, and performance monitoring. Our plans include regular WordPress software updates (core, theme, and plugin). We handle backups, malware scanning, protection, and much more.
With the right team of people regularly working on and monitoring your site, your investment will be protected, will last longer, and small issues will be fixed before they become big issues.
Web hosts are a dime a dozen. In this day and age, anyone can put up a server and call themselves a web host. Our managed WordPress hosting service grew out of our need for a high-performance/high-uptime hosting environment for our clients.
Heck, if we are the ones to get a call when a site is offline, shouldn’t we build the absolute best hosting platform we can rather than rely on someone else? So that is exactly what we did. We put together the best package to ensure our clients the highest uptime and performance for their WordPress sites.
With control over the entire environment from code to server, we have no excuse but to simply solve your issue.

We built the International Social Service organization’s website in partnership with our agency partner, K Global. We currently maintain and host the site.
When House Cleaning Heroes was ready to launch a new website they turned to FatLab for hosting, security and ongoing support and maintenance.
The FatLab team has launched thousands of websites throughout their careers… literally thousands. Shane, the founder of FatLab, remembers explaining what HTML was to executives at Ford Motor Company, MasterCard, and MCI (remember them?) in the late ’90s.
With decades of experience, our careers have taken us through some great (and sometimes crazy) experiences. We have built, launched, and supported websites for those running for Senate and Congress. We have in our portfolio famous and infamous individuals, companies, and organizations. We have worked for the royalty of more than one nation and our work has been part of national and international campaigns.
Most importantly we have helped businesses, agencies, and nonprofits of all sizes create and maintain their online presence. Applying lessons learned with each new project. We have even gone as far as creating our development framework and methodology. We call this Genius Stack.
And finally, we are a web support company. Once a new website has launched our jobs have just begun.
Oh boy, don’t we wish we kept track of the number of sites we have worked on here at FatLab and across our team’s careers…
All we know is that the number would be impressive. We have collectively worked on sites belonging to the smallest mom ‘n pop shops to Fortune 500 sites. We have worked for foreign and domestic governments and just about everything in between. Several of us have been working in PHP, and MySQL – specifically WordPress – for over 10 years.
We each have our strengths – from front-end eye candy to seriously cool back-end functionality. 99% of the sites we manage are built on the WordPress platform.
Our managed website hosting services are specifically designed to serve WordPress websites at the enterprise level.
Slow load times = high bounce rates. Google actually calculates your site’s load times in its page ranking algorithm.
You don’t have to piss someone off to become a target of hackers. Your site visitors could become victims of viruses (or maybe just pharmaceutical ads if they are lucky) if a random bad bot finds just one weak point in your site’s code.
This is where we come in. Utilizing real-time firewalls, daily malware scanning (and cleaning), full-page caching, CDNs, code optimizations, and more – we can help ensure your site remains secure, safe, and fast. This will protect your site visitors and ensure they have the absolute best experience possible.
