Live Stream: How to Deploy a WordPress Site Statically for Better Security and Performance

Length: 30 Minutes

Deploying a site statically provides significant performance and security benefits over traditional hosting. To demonstrate this we’ll go from a standard WordPress installation to a site that’s deployed statically to Workers Sites in 194 cities around the world.

During this 30 minute live stream we’ll cover:

• Why you should consider making a site static
• Why 194 locations with Workers Sites matters
• The types of sites that see the most benefit
• How to export an existing WordPress as a bundle of static assets
• Deploying your static assets to Workers Sites using the Wrangler CLI
• Common "gotchas" with this approach

While not required, to get the most out of this live stream, participants should have a basic understanding of WordPress as well as the concept of a command line interface (CLI).
