+Thanks a lot for your answer.
+rsync plugin would be perfect but... how would i manage blog post?
+I mean... is it possible to manage ikiwiki blog too with rsync plugin in the way you told me? --Pab
+
+> If you want to allow people to make comments on your blog, no, the rsync plugin will not help, since it will upload a completely static site where nobody can make comments.  Comments require a full IkiWiki setup with CGI enabled, so that people add content (comments) from the web. --[[KathrynAndersen]]

+Ok, i understand, thanks.
+Is there any hosting service that permits to have a full installation of iwkiwiki or i am forced to get a vps or to mantain a personal server for that? --Pab
