Hey, I'm one of the founders. We built SpudPress because we felt that there was room for a different static-site approach.

Most other static site generators are awesome, but they require you to use cumbersome command line tools. SpudPress uses WordPress (which 25% of all websites are already running[1]) and turns it into a pain-free static site generator.

We take care of all the edge cases and just generate and host a static site for you so you can take advantage of all the benefits (high scalability, affordable hosting, no more server-side security vulnerability worries, etc.)

Advantages over `wget -mkEpnp` ?

Great question! What we offer is basically that - with a whole bunch more. We take automatically care of all the edge cases, trigger syncs automatically, invalidate CDN cache. Not to mention taking care of the whole deployment and hosting pipeline.
