A static website is made from several HTML files, each representing a page on the website. Each
page on static websites is a separate HTML file. You only see the actual homepage file when you

because static websites are relatively simple to make. Simple static web pages are available. It is
written in various languages, including HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. The server sends the
response to the client without additional processing when it receives a request for a static web
page. And a web browser is used to view these web pages. Pages on static web pages won't
change unless they are manually updated.
When a user visits the page, a dynamic website uses server technologies (like PHP) to build the
page dynamically.
CGI, AJAX, ASP, ASP.NET, and other programming languages create dynamic web pages. The

you will update content frequently. This is due to the fact that any initial savings you may realize
from a static website will not more than offset the extra time and effort required for site updates
and revisions in the future.
