Introduction
Websites can have a variety of types, and they are usually categorised according to their purpose and functionality and the nature of the content that they offer. There are websites that are made to provide information, whereas others are made to be business oriented, interactive or online services. The format and characteristics of a web site is largely determined by objectives of the web site and its intended audience.
A typical one of these is the static site that contains fixed content and is appropriate to small businesses or to simple information sites. Conversely, dynamic sites display information which is capable of altering as a result of user interaction or data, and as such they are more adaptable and the most common these days. Company or business websites are designed to provide a face of the company online where they present their services, products, and contacts.
The other big category is the E-commerce websites where individuals can purchase and sell goods or services online. Blog websites specialize in the publishing of articles, news or educational content and are used in branding oneself personally and digital marketing. Educational websites contain learning tools, courses, and tutorials of students and professionals.
Other categories are the news and magazine websites that post about current events, the membership websites where the limited content is available to the registered users and the landing pages specific to a particular marketing campaign. Web applications, personal websites and nonprofit websites are also to be used with distinct purposes.
