You probably don't need WordPress. At least not for your live site.
WP Static can generate a static copy of your WordPress site in seconds. A static site is faster, more secure, and way cheaper to host.
Copy your WordPress site in two steps, for free.
There's no catch. No sign up. No credit card. Try WP Static in just two simple steps. Heck, it's really just one step, but we want you to look at the site we bundled.
Enter your WordPress site URL
Tell us your WordPress site URL and WP Static will start crawling your pages. We'll collect them all into a bundle for you to download. It will include all the HTML, CSS, and Javascript files from your live site. The idea is for you to take that bundle and host it anywhere.
Review your static site
To take things farther, we'll take your bundle and deploy it to Cloudflare so you may review your static site to see how things look. If it looks good, maybe you don't need WordPress. If parts of your site aren't working, review our limitations for next steps.
Not quite ready to tell us your WordPress site?
We understand. It might be a bit scary to get started. Watch us bundle one of our own WordPress sites to see WP Static in action.
Free, with some paid options too.
WP Static is completely free to use on your own. But we have some paid services if you want help migrating or have a more complex WordPress site.

Frequently asked questions

What's wrong with WordPress?
Some might say WordPress is slow, bloated, and a security nightmare. But it's also the most popular CMS in the world. So, if you're using all its features, then you've probably accepted its tradeoffs or worked around them.
The reality is most sites don't need WordPress. They're not using many of its features or aren't changing their sites in real-time. If you're not, then you can infinitely speed up your site, improve security, and reduce your hosting costs with WP Static.
-
Does this work on all WordPress sites?
Not all. WP Static generate a static site. This means if you have any dynamic content then you may not be able to use WP Static immediately. Sites with web forms, user sections, or content which changes in real-time are dynamic.
This doesn't mean you can't use WP Static at all. You may revisit those parts of your site to determine if they need to by dynamic and remove them. WP Static is working on a service for dynamic sites which truly need WordPress. Get on the waitlist to hear more about our upcoming continuous deployment plan.

How would I manage my site without WordPress?
WP Static helps you move away from WordPress. Moving forward, you would make changes to your static site directly. If your site doesn't change very often, that's probably no big deal.
If you make changes frequently or aren't comfortable moving away from WordPress, you may still use WordPress and WP Static. Check out our Continuous Deployment service for more details.
-
What's included in the bundle?
WP Static will attempt to bundle everything from live site. In most cases, it will include all the files you need to republish your site without WordPress.
In some cases, such as sites with lots of assets (large images, videos, or file downloads), you may need to add those to your bundle. This is likely a matter of copying your
wp-contentfolder. But we'll let you know when we bundle things up. -
How do I host the static copy of my WordPress site?
The great thing is you can host your static site anywhere since it's just HTML files and your assets. Even better, there are many services which host static sites with their free tier. For example, the demo site we create for you to review is hosted freely with Cloudflare.
-
Can WP Static help me deploy the static copy of my WordPress site?
Yes. If you're happy with your static site and don't feel you need WordPress moving forward, we can guide you through the process of migrating your site and even automate some of it for you.
Even if you still want to use WordPress, but would like to deploy your live site statically, we can help with that too. Check our pricing for more details.
