What is a Static Website?

A static website consists of pre-built website built using static files such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript and image files that are served directly to the browser. Static sites do not require any server-side processing and everyone sees the same content. These sites are fast, secure, and easy to deploy. They're ideal for portfolios, landing pages, documentation, and simple business websites that don't require dynamic content generation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is static website hosting?

Static website hosting is a service that allows you to publish your HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files on a web server, making your website accessible online.

Can I use my own domain name?

Yes, you can use your own custom domain or get a free Creatpad subdomain for your website.

Do you support Single Page Applications (SPAs)?

Yes, SPAs can be hosted on Creatpad. Most modern frameworks like React, Vue, or Angular allow you to export your SPA as a static site. Once exported, you can upload these static files to Creatpad for hosting.

Can I host WordPress sites on Creatpad?

While Creatpad doesn't support dynamic WordPress hosting, you can use plugins to export your WordPress site as static HTML files. These exported static files can then be uploaded and hosted on Creatpad, allowing you to benefit from our fast and secure static hosting.

What's the difference between static and dynamic websites?

Static websites consist of pre-built HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files that are served directly to the browser. They don't change unless manually updated. Dynamic websites, on the other hand, generate content on-the-fly using server-side processing, often pulling data from databases. Static sites are typically faster, more secure, and easier to scale, while dynamic sites offer more real-time interactivity.

Are static websites good for SEO?

Yes, static websites can be excellent for SEO. They typically load faster, which is a positive ranking factor. Their simple structure also makes it easier for search engines to crawl and index the content. However, SEO success still depends on factors like content quality, proper meta tags, and good site structure.

Can I update my static website after it's deployed?

Yes, you can update your static website after deployment. Simply make changes to your local files, rebuild your site if necessary, and then re-upload the updated files to Creatpad. Your changes will be reflected immediately after the upload is complete.

What are the limitations of static websites?

Static websites are great for many use cases, but they have limitations. They can't handle user authentication, or dynamic content generation without external services. For features like comments, forms, or e-commerce, you'll need to integrate third-party services or APIs.

What tools can I use to create a static website?

There are many tools available for creating static websites. Popular static site generators include Jekyll, Hugo, Gatsby, and Next.js. You can also use traditional web development tools like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, or website builders like WordPress (with a static export plugin). You can also use AI chatbots such as Claude and ChatGPT to generate static websites (like landing page) quickly.
