Migrating WordPress to a static site changes more than hosting. Assess fit, audit dynamic dependencies, plan deployment, and launch with a rollback path.

Use Staatic hooks to fine-tune crawling, URL handling, and publication behavior beyond the settings screen, for sites with unusual routing or deployment.

GitHub Pages is a simple deployment target for smaller static WordPress sites. Set up GitHub and configure Staatic to publish there.

Export your WordPress site with Staatic and publish it to IPFS with Fleek, so the content is served from a decentralized network.

Native WordPress comments do not carry over cleanly to a static front end. Use Disqus to add comments back while keeping your site static.

Smush reduces image weight without much manual work. Set it up and configure the core settings that matter most on a static WordPress site.

Set up EWWW Image Optimizer to compress WordPress images automatically, with local compression, EXIF data removal, and lazy loading for faster pages.

Install and configure the Cloudinary plugin to optimize, transform, and deliver the images and videos on your static WordPress site.

WP-Cron runs scheduled tasks for WordPress core and plugins, but it has limitations. Work around them with a system cron job or Windows Task Scheduler.
