The Static Website
A static website has fixed content. All web pages stay the same each time they are viewed. These pages display the same content to every website visitor. Static websites don't need a database (holding dynamic information). Such websites are written in HTML and are usually styled with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).
When would you want to choose a static website?
If you want a business card type of a website, that just describes your business and tells your visitors how to reach you, or you to display only static content that will most likely stay the same for a long time without new information or new pages needed to be added, you should be fine with a static site.Like the "Wedding Photos Website".
If you want to run a successful online business or want to sell your art services directly from your website, or make money from your site in any other way or simply because you are thinking to expand your website in the future - a static website is most likely not what you need.
