Static Website
|
Even in this day and age, where websites can dazzle with their fantastic graphics
and ever changing content, simple, static websites still have a very important role
to play. In fact it is important to expel the myth that the more dynamic a website
is means that it will perform well. This is simply not true. Search engines are
quite intelligent applications that filter and index relevant information that is
returned to people who initiate a search for specific words or phrases. Thus content
is key.

If the nature of your business involves the production and distribution
of information that does not change frequently - for example a solicitors, insurance
broker, etc., - and you need to make this information available to the public so
they can make an informed choice in relation to your services - then a static website
design is ideal...
What we mean by static design
Essentially, in terms of a static website, we refer to a website that is written
in straight forward HTML (the language used to produce web pages - Hypertext Markup
Language). As no database, or content-management facility is provided, the only
way to alter the content seen on a web page is to alter the web page itself (of
course, we can do that for you if you would like us to maintain your website). It
doesn’t mean that the website will just be boring plain text - of course the intention
is to develop it in such a way as to reflect the image of your business effectively.
It also doesn’t mean that it can’t be interactive - specialist forms for customers
to complete (e.g. insurance proposal forms, enquiry forms, etc.) can also be incorporated.
Other uses for static design websites
Sometimes a business just wants to create a company contact website as an alternative
method of "point of contact" for it's existing clients without the wish to actively
promote themselves on the World Wide Web. It isn't always easy for customers to
contact businesses during normal office hours, thus a company contact website provides
an excellent additional service to a business portfolio.
Designs and numbers of pages...
Static information based website utilizing form elements. The design and size of
a static website can vary considerably depending upon your requirements. They could
be simplistic and informative, or inclusive of a more graphic element. The number
of pages could be from the basic 3 page website (introduction page, about us page,
company contact page) to literally hundreds of pages - depending upon the products
/ service / general information pages that are required.
Essentially, the number
of pages that you will have in your finalized website will be dependent upon the
amount of information you supply us. Unlike many Web Design Companies - we DO NOT
charge you by the page (unless you specifically purchase a 3 or 5 page website).
We consider all website design contracts as a project, and as such your payment
is for time. This means that we will examine your content thoroughly, and organize
it in as many pages as required to maximize your websites potential.
