New
FLATSite Converter Aims to Make
WordPress Sites Faster, More
Secure and Cheaper to Host
|
Since
entering
the domain business in 2002 one of
my greatest pleasures has been
watching so many of the smart
entrepreneurs I've met along the
way create innovative new products
and services. Frederick Schiwek,
who was an Executive VP at EuroDNS
when I met him at one of the first
domain conferences 15 years ago,
has chalked up multiple successes
as a domain investor, developer
and businessman since then. Freddy
just contacted me about his latest
creation - FLATsite
- a service that converts existing
WordPress websites into flat
HMTL sites that allow them to
be hosted anywhere (a big
money saver when it comes to
hosting) while running faster and
more securely than they do in
their original format.
The
majority of sites on the web are
WordPress sites but Schiwek noted
that popularity comes with what
can be a stiff price for site
owners. "They
all share the same problem,"
Schiwek said. "WordPress has
security issues, it’s resource
hungry, and also very costly
- we all know good WordPress
hosting is expensive. So, we built
a product for agencies and
developers, so that they can
continue to build great WordPress
sites and host them on any
dirt-cheap hosting plan - even
without PHP and a database.

turns a
WordPress website into a flat, light-weight CSS/HTML website and comes
with a WordPress Manager and built-in security features."
Schiwek
added, "A flat CSS/HTML website has no security holes because
there is no PHP or database (which can be hacked). So, without the
FTP password you can’t get access. FLATsite is perfect for all domainers,
many of whom started building small or large websites many years ago but
were slowed down by high hosting prices, security issues and mediocre speed.
We’ve fixed all these problems. We store your website files locally in the
FLATsite server and you’re able to choose the cheapest hosting plan on the
web, using just the disk space. FLATsite provides an easy way to manage and
secure WordPress sites and comes with a static site generator built-in which
lets you deploy your WordPress static site seamlessly with just one-click."
If
you want to try FLATsite out, the company offers a 30-day
free trial.
