Moving a site from WordPress to Pelican

Gabe Weatherhead from Macdrifter.com recently moved his WordPress site to the static-file based Pelican system. He gives a wonderfully detailed look at why and how he did it.

    It’s really not that hard to harden your WordPress by simply installing WP Cache. Took me about five minutes. Traffic was about 20GB within four days.

    Glad I did it when I set up the blog. I don’t understand why it isn’t built into WordPress and I don’t really see a reason to move to Pelican when there’s tools around. I bet the use case for your readers is about zero – how often does one get linked by Gruber? Once maybe?

    I blame my non-existing beard.
