Static and Dynamic Websites

Static and Dynamic Websites Design


There are basically two main types of website - static and dynamic. A static site is one that is usually written in plain HTML and what is in the code of the page is what is displayed to the user.A dynamic site is one that is written using a server-side scripting language such as PHP, ASP, JSP, or Coldfusion. In such a site the content is called in by the scripting language from other files or from a database depending on actions taken by the user.

Merits

  • Flexibility is the main advantage of a static site
  • Every page can be different if desired, to match the layout to different content, and the designer is free to put in any special effects that a client may ask for in a unique way on different pages.
  • This allows theming - for instance an author may want a different theme for a different book and associated pages
  • Cost is generally lower up-front than a dynamic site.

Merits

  • There are little or no ongoing costs unless there is a change in the basic design or an extra capability added.
  • The main advantages of dynamic sites are that by connecting them to databases you can easily pull in information in an organised and structured way
  • Cost is generally higher than a static site.
