WP Engine customers. In the report, we provide insight into account activity, innovation updates to our platform, and what we\u2019ve done behind the scenes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The monthly report is sent to all <a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/support\/users\/#roles\">Owners<\/a> on the account every month. If you have more than one WP Engine account, we will send a separate report per account. This report is only sent for accounts that have been a customer since at least the first day of the previous month. The reports are triggered after the usage period ends for each account so you may receive the report at different times of the month for different accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lighthouse Performance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Accounts with a single live production site will see their performance, accessibility, best practices,&nbsp; and SEO scores.
