Website is certainly the foundation on which an online business stands. It needs to be firm, sturdy, and strong to scale the structure of your online business to new heights. The type of website you choose for your business plays a crucial role in determining the strength and effectiveness of your business. Although there are a number of parameters on which various websites can be categorized, here we are going to discuss the types of websites based on their nature and function.
Websites can be divided into two types based on the nature of development and the functions they perform, they are- Static website and Dynamic website. In this write-up, we have discussed the difference between the two websites and their advantages and disadvantages. Keep reading to learn more about dynamic and static website.
In technical terms, a static website is developed in HTML and CSS languages. It consists of a series of coded files that are created to represent the various physical pages on the site. These websites are quick and easy to develop. They are cost-efficient and are the perfect choice for small businesses. A static website feels much like an online brochure with forms and hyperlinks which enable its potential customers to view different pages on the screen. The pages on a static website once created will remain static and cannot be updated or changed without coding skills. That is, if a novice business owner wants to update certain information on his/her static website, he/she would have to get a website developer to perform the needful task.
Advantages :
Disadvantages :
Technically speaking, a dynamic website is developed using advanced server technologies like PHP, JavaScript or ASP to build more dynamic web pages. By dynamic web pages, we mean pages that are interactive in nature and dynamically change according to time, geography and user type. Dynamic websites can be connected to a large database enabling it to pull information as and when required. This helps in creating a more user-driven page that changes as the user wants. On a dynamic website, the content and information present on the page changes according to the user commands.
Advantages :
Disadvantages :
After going through the advantages and disadvantages of both dynamic and static website, a conclusion that can be formed is that a dynamic website, although costing high, is a better approach for website development. It is a one-time investment and can be beneficial for scaling any business online.
These are few advantages and disadvantages of both dynamic and static website. The utility and resourcefulness of both types of websites depend on specific needs and purposes. Where few people prefer the simplicity and ease of static websites, few other are fascinated with the rich-functionality and intuitiveness of dynamic websites. Both have their own advantages and limitations.
