All that work, and you still need to manually generate proper meta tags and structured data for SEO—and then add custom functionality for editing that in contentful. And then the client’s marketing team realizes they need AMP support, so you have to manually build that since most static site generators aren’t designed for that. And then the client sees a competitor has ESP integration in their Wordpress admin and can send newsletters in the same place they publish content—-so you have to custom build that. And then the client suddenly needs to add payment integration and e-commerce capabilities. And then they need to generate one-off marketing landing pages without needing to call you. And so on. And then 300 hours later you realize that the entire static site ecosystem is designed for developer pleasure, instead of the needs of real businesses. And after you add the things real businesses need, you kinda just wasted months recreating Wordpress. And you realize you probably should have just used Wordpress. [this has been my realization over the past couple of years trying to shoehorn clients into static sites]
