What is the difference between Static and dynamic web page?

Give any two points of difference between Static web page and Dynamic web page.

Answer 1

Sr. no.	Static Web Page	Dynamic Web Page
1.	The content and layout of a static web page remain fixed and do not change unless manually updated.	The content and layout of a dynamic web page change during run time based on user input, interaction, or real-time data.
2.	Static web pages do not use databases.	Dynamic web pages use databases to generate content dynamically through queries.
3.	Static web pages run directly on the browser and do not require any server-side application programs.	Dynamic web pages run on the server using server-side scripts or applications and then display the results in the browser.
4.	They are built using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and have limited interactivity.	They use server-side technologies like PHP, Python, Node.js, or ASP.NET and are highly interactive, allowing features such as forms, login, and real-time data access.
5.	Static web pages are easy to develop and are commonly used for simple websites like company pages, portfolios, blogs, and landing pages.	Dynamic web pages require programming skills and are commonly used for social media sites, e-commerce platforms, and dashboards (e.g., Facebook, Amazon, Google).
