Static

A Static site is like a newspaper you print a page and it doesn't change till you do another page.  This is the original basic web site all the pages are created and uploaded to the Web Host and when changes are needed you make the changes and re upload to Host.  Example of Static Web Site  

Dynamic

A Dynamic site can be a mix of both Static and Dynamic.  But in the simplest terms a dynamic site is one that gets information from some where else and displays it on the page like from a database or xml file.   EXAMPLE: A database of Items you are selling on your site could be set up to get a list of the items for sale determined by something the user clicks on like a tab or link or picture an example of a Dynamic site is Monoprice

When you click on the 'cables' tab a list of items shows up that are in the database and the page is auto generated for you.  This requires some behind the scenes coding and is why they cost a little more.  Most sites with a only a few items on there web Site don't need to bother with Dynamic, but if you have hundreds or thousands of items (Like Monoprice) then there is no other way except to have a dynamic site.

We are specialists in dynamic sites that require databases like the one we did for Epic Motor Sports the portion of the site also has a cart or shopping portion that is dynamic as well.  Shopping carts can be added to both Static and Dynamic sites
