Stronghold WP

Static site

Your site as plain HTML files — just as a visitor sees it. WordPress stays hidden.

What it looks like

What it does

  • The server delivers the site without PHP or a database — WordPress and plugins cannot be attacked through the public site
  • Posts, pages, archives, RSS and sitemap; only the files the content refers to
  • Checks that nothing from the dashboard got into the copy — on an error it does not publish the version
  • Replaces forms with e-mail contact
  • Refreshes after content changes and every night; unpublished content disappears at once
  • Three versions to roll back to and approval with a list of differences
  • Ready-made nginx and Apache server settings
