I have an old wordpress blog that I'm tired of maintaining. I pay for hosting at a place where I have filesystem access. I update wp myself. It's all so incredibly 15 years ago. :p What's the easiest way to move it to something hosted?

Do you just want to make it static, and not add new stuff? If so I have a tool for you:https://github.com/kevinmarks/spiderpig …

I moved to Jekyll but wpengine was a contender for a while
-
Hosted
@Ghost blog would be my choice for that at this point.

I pondered this same thing as I was thinking about refreshing my whole website (which was also WP). I eventually exported all the posts to markdown and imported into a Jekyll site I made (which is on Github and auto-publishes to Netlify)...

It was a bit of work to convert, but finding a site theme online made it easier. There's also always http://wordpress.com (which I pondered doing as well). Probably an easier conversion but with auto updates

no Flywheel???? -
[goes to http://flywheel.com ] [then does a search for the web-based flywheel] Oh yeah, looks like http://getflywheel.com could host WP sites too, and my friend Jen works there

Digital Ocean has a WordPress droplet that self updates.

Had the same problem myself! wrote a little script that turned each post into HTML and then just served the pages on an express server.

If you go with
@wpengine they have an automatic site migration plugin and they do update WP automatically for you too.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Are you comfortable having everything auto updated? This can be set up, I believe, regardless of the host you choose. So you could be updated and hands off. I think my host http://netwisp.com can do the migration and set.up for you :)
