WordPress needs setup, maintenance, monthly fee. Sites I used to make with FrontPage ended up being static, no maintenance, on a free - usually ISP - provider.

That is the big difference.
- marc_io 6y agoYou can easily export your website to a free static hosting using with a free plugin, after creating it on your desktop computer. No online PHP hosting required.
- detaro 6y ago"easily" as in "an average user can do this (and discover instructions how to) without too much difficulty"?
- marc_io 6y agoAn average user can do this, for sure. But, yea, some sort of instruction is necessary, as it is not something that the platform itself offers by default. For example: the user needs to be aware of this possibility to begin with and also need to know which plugin to install, even it isn't difficult to work with. In addition, as the site will no longer be dynamic, some adjustments must be made, such as disabling comments - or adding an alternative like Disqus.
