Hello there, looking for an advice from advanced users here.
My struggle is that although I make fast sites, I lack consistency and plugin selection often vary between the sites. I wish I would manage to unify it by finding good methods.
I often use following:
– Caching plugin like wp rocket
– Cloudflare cache
– image optimization plugin like resmush
Although sometimes things broke and I grab a different plugin. Cloudflare stays the same however on 1 site I use plugin on wordpress (super cache cloudflare) and on others I created custom caching rules directly in cloudflare.
The reason behind all this inconsistency is that I am not really confident what is best.
I also very much consider creating static pages out of wordpress but I just dont know how to solve the problem with dynamic contact forms, which are basically the only dynamic element. I dont really need a db and php for anything else.
Been playing with the idea of hosting static version of my site on cloudflare but need to solve contact forms AND some kind of a way to be able to edit and push changes easily.
I know this is quite complex but if you dont mind, share how you deal with speed and effectiveness and if there is a solid guide on all this advanced stuff (not some kind of big youtuber talking about bloatware plugins please) i would appreciate!

If you wanna make your own static sites and host them yourself, just put it in a GitHub repo and host it for free with Netlify. They also do form handling. You just add an attribute to your form and they pick it up and route it to wherever you want it to go in the form settings. No need to configure a backend for the contact form. I do this for all my sites. Super easy.
