Maximize WordPress Performance with Simply Static
Slash your page load time and crush performance issues with the only WordPress performance plugin you need, Simply Static. Maximize your pagespeed, eliminate bottlenecks in rendering your website and keep calm with a static site.
Secret Weapon for WordPress Performance
Simply Static transforms your existing WordPress site into a static one with the click of a button, dramatically boosting your site’s performance and speed.
Struggling with your WordPress site’s performance? Used multiple WordPress caching plugins, minification tools, and lazy loading, but nothing is improving your website performance?
Simply Static is your answer to speed up WordPress.
Maximize Site Speed With Static WordPress
No database
Simply Static removes the need for a WordPress database. No database calls = lightning-fast pagespeed.
Minification
We use minification to optimize your HTML, CSS, and Javascript files for the best performance. No additional speed optimization plugins are needed.
Image optimization
We integrate with the Shortpixel API to optimize all your media files while running a static export – automatically.
Keep WordPress Hidden
As the website owner, you’ll still be using the WordPress dashboard to update content, but by using Simply Static, you’ll keep that hidden.
Simply Static replaces all the default paths of WordPress, like wp-content and wp-includes, rewrites the plugin and theme directory, and even replaces plugin names to completely hide the fact that you are using WordPress.
- rewrite theme and style file names
- rewrite default paths
- change core directories
Say Goodbye to Unnecessary WordPress Features
Simply Static removes unneeded and bulky WordPress features like emojis, Rest API URLs, and WordPress version numbers to improve website speed and security.
Slash Your Maintenance Time in Half
Ditch the never-ending plugin updates, security patches, and WordPress latest version worries.
Simply Static crushes your maintenance time, freeing you to focus on more important things.
Effortlessly Improve Your Site SEO
Simply Static users enjoy blazing-fast load times confirmed by speed test tools like Pingdom and Google PageSpeed Insights.
These speed improvements are directly correlated with improved rankings in search engines.
Optimize Your WordPress Website Uptime
Once your WordPress website is static, you’ll deploy it to a CDN (Content Delivery Network) service of your choice, delivering your website quickly and more efficiently to users, no matter where they are.
Simply Static supports everything from your local directory, to GitHub, Cloudflare, Netlify, BunnyCDN, and more.

I was having many issues with malware, but it ultimately led me to this static solution for WordPress sites, and I’m enjoying this new approach to developing WordPress projects quickly and securely.

I ended up converting one WordPress site to static, and it was super simple. I had one question about GitHub access, which was answered quickly.

This is a great addition, as it allows a site to be hosted in S3/Cloudfront and prevents WordPress attacks.

★★★★★
[…] Simply Static is a comprehensive solution for anyone looking to improve their WordPress site’s performance, security, and cost-effectiveness. With the bonus of outstanding support from Patrick, it’s a must-have for any WordPress user. Highly recommended!

Publishing a Jamstack site from WordPress gives the best of both worlds—flexible content creation with a serverless website (we publish to S3).

Douglas Stein
Director of Engineering
★★★★★
WordPress is very useful but too insecure, unreliable, and slow to be used by critical sites without a solution like this. This way, we get the benefits of WordPress without the downsides.

Jocelyn Earl
CTO
★★★★★
As an agency, we work with many customers who come to us with either existing WordPress sites or new sites that are perfect candidates for static sites. Supporting static sites is a lighter lift on the agency site, and the customer wins on better security and typically better performance […].

★★★★★
Static sites have many benefits. The pro version has a good feature for a solid implementation. I’ve encountered a few edge cases, and their support has been prompt and professional.

Scott Green

The plugin setup was easy and works great out of the box. The documentation is good, and support is great if needed, too!
