Convert WordPress Site to Static

I’m ready to swap my current WordPress installation for a lean, fully static HTML build so the site loads noticeably faster. Everything that visitors can do today must still work tomorrow: every post in the blog, all image galleries, and each contact form. When someone submits a form, the data should continue to reach my inbox via email just as it does now—no database storage required.

You’re free to choose the workflow that makes the most sense—traditional hand-coded HTML, a static site generator, or a headless export plug-in—so long as the final result is a set of clean, well-structured HTML/CSS/JS files that I can drop onto a standard hosting account. Please preserve existing URLs where possible to avoid breaking links and SEO.

Deliverables:
• Fully converted static site matching current design and content
• Blog section rendered as static pages with pagination and archives intact
• Image galleries functioning identically, including lightboxes where used
• Contact forms that send submissions to my email address (use a lightweight solution such as Formspree, Netlify Forms, or a simple PHP handler)
• Clear hand-off package with all source files and brief deployment instructions

I’ll supply a zipped backup of the WordPress site and any additional assets you need. Let me know your preferred approach, estimated timeline, and any clarifying questions so we can get started.
