I've been a fan of the 'simply static' plugin for wordpress for a few years now. Basically, install wordpress on a server, make it accessible only to authorized users (vpn, acl, htauth, whatever works best for you), then have it deploy to an apache server or s3 bucket.

The WP designer feels at home. Has a simple deploy button. The pages load significantly faster.

Works well most of the time. Sometimes forms can be a bit tricky, but the sites I've deployed it with usually don't have many of them.

I know that it seems like a great place to plug your favorite plugin but my point is:

Why run WordPress to serve static site when you have SSGs?
