Web Design by Doug Williams and Associates

As part of our website marketing solution packages, we offer some of the best web design available. We have been able to help our clients meet their web design needs whether they wanted a static or dynamic web site. Listed below are some differences between static and dynamic sites:

  • Static sites typically consist of a series of pages ending with .html or .htm that don't change unless you update them with an editor.
  • Dynamic web sites are typically pieced together with a header, footer, and body making updates that transcend the entire site easy.
  • Static sites can be updated easier by using frames, but sites with frames usually rank poorly with search engines.
  • A Dynamic web site can read/write data from or to a database, process data forms, send emails, draw graphics on the fly, and much more.
  • Static sites can be displayed on any web server because they are such a basic part of the web.
  • Entire web-based applications can be integrated into a dynamic site.
  • Static sites are typically easier to create because they don't use a complex scripting language.
  • A Dynamic site are much easier to maintain and can be made to maintain themselves.
