Strattic's innovative approach to hosting converts WordPress sites to a static and headless Jamstack architecture comprised of HTML, CSS and JS files, delivered fully via global CDN.
Founded in 2016, Elementor has grown over the last six years to become the leading website builder for WordPress, powering 7.4% of all global websites. The Strattic acquisition follows the recent launch of Elementor Cloud Website. Elementor plans to leverage Strattic's static rendering technology to expand its hosting capabilities and focus on offering solutions to challenges faced by WordPress users.
CEO of Elementor Yoni Luksenberg said, "Strattic's technology, reputation, talent and established market position as the leader of static hosting technology in the WordPress space will allow us to offer the benefits of static hosting to our entire user base, while also providing a platform for hosting high performance large-scale websites – all in a single offering. This acquisition means our creators' websites will always scale for traffic and perform under load, with no need to provision servers ahead of a big campaign."
