Highlighted: the lines this signal was extracted from

Day one of our biggest trade show this September, the site was down about 6 hours because logs filled the disk. The QR code on our booth banner got 300 and something scans in that window. A sales guy texted me from the booth. I'm the only IT person at a 60 person hydraulic parts distributor, so the website's mine too. It's 11 pages plus a PDF catalog, built with a static site generator by a contractor who's long gone, and parked on a $24 a month VPS. I'm not a web dev. Closest I've come is building our quoting and RMA tools in low code, and that platform has a basic page builder I've half considered for the site. Marketing wants to edit it themselves, and I could move the site onto that page builder this week. Our quoting platform roughly tripled our price at renewal in 2024, so my rule for internal tools since then is never without an exit. No idea if that rule even makes sense for a brochure site. If we go hosted, can we get our content out later? Or is there a middle option, like static hosting on Cloudflare or Netlify, with no server to babysit? And what monitoring would've caught a full disk before the show? I have to recommend something by end of month, and sales still brings up the banner every time I walk past.

  • “For an 11-page brochure site, I'd keep the public pages independent of the quoting/RMA tools. Before choosing a new builder, ask marketing to edit one real page, then try exporting and serving that page plus the PDF somewhere else. That tests both editing and the exit you care about. For the next show, I'd also use a QR destination you control, so you can redirect it to a small fallback page with”

  • “your exit rule makes even more sense for a brochure site. putting the public site on the same vendor that already tripled your price means a second renewal you can't walk away from. and page builders usually export badly or not at all, so "get our content out later" often means rebuilding by hand. the easy middle option: your site is already static. whatever the generator spat out is sitting in”

The site's already built with a static site generator, so it's mostly connecting the repo and letting it rebuild whenever something changes. Your exit rule makes sense for a brochure site too. With static hosting the content sits in files you own, so leaving later is just pointing the”

  • “A good solution for this exact thing is a static website deployed to Cloudflare Pages. Pressless.io does exactly that and lets the marketing team make changes. It comes with Claude AI chat, but you can edit the code if you want. Disclaimer: this is promotion, but the solution fits.”
