Static Websites

Hello bloggers,

A static website will generally provide consistent, standard information for an extended period of time. They are normally attached to relevant information towards it own, only they express a specific point of view or points of interest set by the sites owner. Although the website owner may make updates periodically, it is a manual process to edit the text and content and may require basic website design skills and software (Wikepedia, 2009).

In summary, visitors are not able to control what information they receive via a static website, and must instead settle for whatever content the website owner has decided to offer at that time on that subject. This may be of use to students as it could possibly outline the specifics of the websites topic or related information, remembering though, it is a point of view or the beliefs of that sites owning body.

Businesses or people with a topic of interest may create a Static Website to use as a brochure for showcasing purposes, i found an interesting link talking on the pros and cons of Blog v Static Websites http://www.growyourwritingbusiness.com/?p=224, it explains how and why people would use such a thing.

Thanks,

Shaun Morris
