Static Web Design (HTML/CSS)
A static website is for businesses that dont require regular updates or changes and are focused on advertising a single service or to obtain a online identity. Static websites are developed in HTML , CSS and Java Script. The cost of a static website is usually based on the number of “pages” required for the volume of data or graphics supplied but overall it is a combination of the following factors.
Volume of digital material supplied ( 1-5 pages ) e.g in Word , Excel or PDF.
Volume of graphics supplied or required to be purchased through a licenced stock company
Volume of coding and designing of each page ( 1-3 days ) on average.
Priority of the development ( Low – High )
Experience of the Developer / Designer
Here at Bolton Web Design we will give your an estimate quotation based on the above factors.
Dynamic Web Design (XHTML/PHP)
Dynamic web design allows elements of your website to be changed with minimum effort. Using the same HTML foundations PHP can be combined with HTML to allow XHTML. PHP is fast , lightweight and is being used today on some of the world’s largest sites including Facebook and Wikipedia.
Imagine if you had to change your contact details on your website which has over 50 pages ? with a dynamic site all is required is a single change. With social media like Twitter , Facebook , YouTube and News Feeds using a PHP powered website would allow you to have all these 3rd party applications integrated at no additional cost.
