What CampusPress does

CampusPress, operated by Incsub, LLC and headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama, is a managed WordPress multisite hosting provider purpose-built for educational institutions. Founded in 2005, the company delivers a fully managed platform that gives a single Super Admin centralized control over thousands of subsites — covering users, privacy, branding, and compliance — while empowering faculty, staff, and students to publish independently. The platform powers more than 20 million sites for 280+ schools and universities globally, including 35 of the top 100 US universities (per Times Higher Education ranking) and notable institutions such as Yale, Cornell, the University of Chicago, Ohio State, LSE, UCL, the University of Melbourne, and the National University of Singapore.

The underlying technology is built on WordPress Multisite, augmented with a suite of proprietary and curated plugins (My Class for student management, Multisite Theme Manager, Batch Create, Signup TOS, Audit Logs, Content Monitor, Cloning & Staging, Domain Mapping) and pre-designed education themes. Infrastructure is delivered via a global CDN (Bunny CDN), intelligent caching, and 99.9% uptime SLA, with compliance certifications including SOC 2 Type II, FERPA, GDPR, CCPA, WCAG, HECVAT Lite, and adherence to the EU-U.S., UK Extension, and Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Frameworks. Integrations include Google Analytics (via WPMU DEV Beehive Pro), Google Tag Manager, reCAPTCHA, Canvas LMS, Blackboard LTI, and SSO via LDAP, Google Apps, and Shibboleth. The sub-brand Edublogs provides a free-forever tier for individual teachers, functioning as a top-of-funnel channel.

The business model is enterprise subscription-based: revenue is generated through multi-year Managed Service Agreements (MSAs) whose pricing is quote-based and customized per institution, with optional add-on professional services covering custom development, migration from other CMS platforms, training, and end-user support. The go-to-market is direct enterprise sales through a consultative funnel (free consultation → free demo network → migration → launch) targeting budget-holding decision makers at universities, K-12 schools, and education districts. The company has been self-sustaining since founding with no disclosed venture capital or private equity investment.
