Most websites are built as if someone will be there every day, tending them. Feeding the database. Updating the plugins. Checking the logs.
Nobody is there. That’s not a failure. It’s just the truth about most small businesses. They have a business to run.
So build for the truth. A static site is just files. No engine idling in the driveway, burning fuel for a trip you’ll never take. When something needs to change, you ask your developer, and it changes.
The best tool isn’t the one with the most features. It’s the one that fits the way you actually work.
