Im pretty convinced static site generators should be the default first choice for most sites.

I've recently found the perfect middle ground: Django with Wagtail and Bakery. Django is Django, Wagtail is a very well designed CMS, and Bakery allows you to export Django views as static files. That way, I managed to convert my dynamic website to a static one with a few lines of code (basically a loop that iterates over all URLs on my site).

Especially if you're popular and want to scale.

Turning that CMS into a distributed publishing platform is tricky, but scaling static content is easy-mode from top to bottom.
