It's technically not static content, but consider Server Side Includes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Side_Includes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Side_Includes) for when you want to share just a header and footer.

Wouldn't it be simpler to just have a static site generator. Combining templates is what they do best and then it keeps the server side very simple, its just static files you can dump on any web host.

Server Side Includes are unfairly neglected simply due to age. Another way, seldom mentioned, is JavaScript. Just include some script tag, which inserts the HTML at the top, bottom, or wherever. An advantage it has over Server Side Includes is that it is cached.

  One disadvantage as that many search engines and other programmatic means won't be able to read the Javascript.
