Static HTML Websites are obviously easier to manage. They are of the kind one can leave alone for months and depending on the add ons like social media etc, they probably will be safer too. I prefer Wordpress however just because it is so dynamic and interesting to play with. In the beginning it was a bit tedious to cut through the hundreds of themes, and to learn to use it perfectly, but once one has conquered the basics, I prefer it over HTML. I managed to sort out four good themes out of the hundreds out there, and I've also managed to find the exact plugins I like. I think the more confident one gets with WordPress experience, the more one prefers it. In the end however, my static Websites are always much easier and simpler to manage. Just not as much fun as WordPress however.
