Benefits of HTML over Wordpress platform

At times, I prefer using pure HTML, CSS and Javascript codes instead of Wordpress especially for single page website or landing page.

Here are some of the benefits using HTML
  • Lightweight & less messy codes
  • Faster Loading even without cache or CDN
  • Content are mostly static
  • Basic functionality like form submission, pop-up modal, dynamic content changes, mobile responsive, etc can be easily implement via basic Javascript
  • No regular theme or plugins updates
In summary, what I wanted is just a simple, clean and fast loading page. Key is to get customer sales and/or leadgen. Nothing more.

To me, Wordpress is great for blogging, dynamic content or larger websites, and  implementing advance functions eg. shopping cart, auto-backup, security monitoring, payment gateway at ease.

Below are some of the simple HTML sites that are optimise to convert leads and fast loading.
