static website designs

what are static web site designs?

Static web pages are independent stand alone content pages that are directly held within the server, with no content management system or back-end solution. There is no dynamic data so each page will display the same information to every customer with no personalisation as they are simply stored with the hosting provider and no elements are changeable.

Each webpage must be designed individually (we have a team of graphic designers who are experts in this design servcie) and uploaded separately, a static website just contains several pages with HTML links to connect those pages. Our web designers create modern and professional designs to fit with your business corporate branding that will give you a professional web presence.

Static pages are very easy to build and upload in the initial instance, although it can be difficult to edit the information within those pages once they are live. The content can only be edited by accessing the file on the server, excluding clients from making any changes themselves.

Static websites are also not SEO friendly; the content will remain the same indefinitely therefore not giving the search engines any new content to crawl. Most static websites contain a very few amount of pages so if you’re business is growing then it’s going to be difficult to expand your website inline with the company, but they are much cheaper than standard brochureware websites as they have no CMS and therefore a good solution for start-up businesses.

Many large businesses use static web pages to demonstrate how a full website will look, for example from a design perspective it will helps to promote a design to managers if it is already online so they will get the full picture.

Performance figures are high with static websites as they take much less time to load, therefore reducing server stress and giving users fast downloads.
