Can I change content on my website? |
You can change, add, remove content such as text or images, even flash presentations on your dynamic site.
There are millions of static websites on the Internet, you won?t be able to tell immediately if it is static, but the chances are, if the site looks basic and delivers information without any bells and whistles, it is likely a static site. Static websites are typically updated updated by a website developer, a programmer. Static websites provide entry level web presence and serve like a business card on the web.
