🎉 Shifter’s Features

With Shifter, you can create a safe, secure, and comfortable website with surprising ease, convenience, and low cost.

Shifter comes standard with a system that maintains security and performance without needing to rely on IT administrators or engineers.

Generating static sites that prevent unauthorized access

A site built with regular WordPress is called a “dynamic site,” meaning a program runs and generates the web page on the spot every time the site is accessed. Cybercriminals exploit this characteristic, using vulnerabilities in WordPress or its plugins as an entry point to inject malicious code and carry out attacks. Shifter, on the other hand, lets you use WordPress while generating and publishing a “static site” made only of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, so no malicious code can ever be executed.

Preventing unauthorized access to the admin dashboard

If you use standard WordPress as is, the login URL for the admin dashboard can easily be discovered, creating a risk of unauthorized access if no countermeasures are taken. With Shifter, WordPress itself only runs when you log in to Shifter to make updates, greatly reducing the risk of unauthorized access to your server or admin dashboard.

Generating lightweight, high-speed web pages

Shifter comes standard with a CDN (content delivery network), efficiently delivering web content from network locations around the world so users get optimal performance no matter where they access your site from. Because the site is published as a static site that runs no server-side programs such as PHP, and thanks to features like image optimization, Shifter achieves extremely fast website performance.

Offered as a low-cost SaaS

You can use it, including the server environment for your website, for an affordable monthly fee with no large upfront investment required. This makes it easy to launch a business or sales and marketing activities using your website. Thanks to its high level of security, you have little need to worry about your business being affected by cyberattacks.

🔧 How Site Generation Works

Publishing your website with Shifter

step1

Log in to Shifter

After creating an account, enter your email address and password on the sign-in screen to log in to Shifter.

step2

Launch WordPress and edit your site content

Edit your content in the admin dashboard just as you would with regular WordPress. Your website is then updated by generating an artifact to apply the changes.

*Shifter converts the website you create or edit in WordPress into a published, static website. The version generated by this conversion is called an “artifact” (a set of static files).

step3

Generate and publish an artifact*

Because artifacts are version-controlled, you can instantly roll back to a previous version, or download an artifact as an archive to display it in a different environment.
