Using travis to build static site is a neat hack.

I had built a small tool to build the static site on git push and used it
for bangalore.python.org.in and python.org.in website.

Except from hosting a site on a server in india, it doesn't have any other
benefits compared to github-pages.

+1 for github-pages.
