Simply Static

Simply Static turns your WordPress site into secure, lightning-fast static HTML files.

Stop worrying about WordPress security patches, performance plugins, and expensive hosting.

Simply Static converts your entire WordPress site into static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files that load instantly and can’t be hacked.

Perfect for blogs, marketing sites, documentation, portfolios, and any content-driven WordPress site.

Why Go Static?

⚡ Blazing Fast Performance
Static sites load 3-5x faster than traditional WordPress. No database queries. No server-side processing. Just instant page loads from a global CDN.

🔒 Unhackable Security
No database. No login page. No PHP vulnerabilities. Static HTML can’t be hacked the way traditional WordPress can.

💰 Dramatically Lower Hosting Costs
Host your static site for free on platforms like Cloudflare Pages, Netlify, or GitHub Pages. Or deploy to any server for pennies per month.

🎯 Zero Maintenance
No more WordPress updates. No plugin conflicts. No security patches. Focus on content, not server management.

Plugins & Features That Don’t Work with Static Sites

Static sites are perfect for public content, but some WordPress plugins require server-side processing and won’t work on static sites:

E-commerce:

• WooCommerce
• Easy Digital Downloads
• Other shopping cart plugins

Static sites can’t process payments or manage user accounts. Consider headless WordPress solutions for e-commerce.

Membership & Authentication:

• MemberPress
• Restrict Content Pro
• User registration plugins
• Login-required content

Static sites don’t support user authentication or member-only areas.

Real-Time Dynamic Content:

• Forum plugins (bbPress, BuddyPress)
• Live chat widgets (unless using external services)
• Real-time data feeds
• Heavy AJAX functionality

What DOES Work (with Pro/Studio):

• Forms (Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms, WPForms, Fluent Forms)
• Search functionality (Fuse.js or Algolia)
• Comments (special integration)
• Newsletter signups (via external services)

If your site relies heavily on the plugins listed above, Simply Static may not be the right solution. For questions about specific plugin compatibility, check our compatibility database or ask in our support forum.
