Why Static Sites in cPanel Just Make Sense
If you’ve been working with websites for a while, you’ve probably heard the buzz about static sites. And honestly, there’s a good reason for it. Static sites are fast, secure, and easy to manage—especially when you’re hosting them through cPanel, which is still one of the most widely used web hosting control panels out there. Whether you’re building something small and simple or just want to cut down on backend headaches, here’s why static sites are worth considering—and why cPanel makes the process even smoother.
