+Why static websites?
+--------------------
+
+Modern web frameworks make it easy to create huge dynamic websites. Why would
+anyone still care about a static website?
+
+- Static websites are fast, because it's simply files served directly from the
+  hard disk.
+- Static websites are secure. Nobody has ever found an SQL injection in static
+  pages.
+- Static websites are easy to deploy. Just copy them to your webhost using
+  (S)FTP/rsync/scp and you are done. They work on all webhosts: no CGI or extra
+  modules needed for the web server.
+
+Why Hakyll?
+-----------
+
+Hakyll is a [Haskell] library meant for creating small-to-medium sized static
+websites. It is a powerful publishing tool, precisely because of the power of
+Haskell. By using the awesome [pandoc] library, it is able to create your
+website from a large variety of input formats.
