What is website?

     Hello! This week, we checked the Monthly Test about html 4 and steps in making html and how to save it. My score in Monthly test is thirty-six out of fifty, it’s not the highest but I’m happy that I’m not failed. Sir Nani told us to search a personal website. Then, we make a website it’s only the structure and its checklist. A website, also written Web site, web site, or simply site, is a collection of related web pages containing images, videos or other digital assets. A website is hosted on at least one web server, accessible via a network such as the Internet or a private local area network through an Internet address known as a Uniform Resource Locator. All publicly accessible websites collectively constitute the World Wide Web.

     We checked our assignment about the different types of websites, personal webpage, hobby webpage and a site map. The different types of website are static websites is the simplest form of website in which the site’s content is delivered without the use of server side processing. Static websites are used principally for brochure sites and can include complex graphics, animations and JavaScript driven features. Dynamic website rely on server side scripting to provided advanced interactivity and usually use a database to deliver the content for individual page.  A dynamic website will be required to allow users to sort and search records, or to restrict access to parts of the website using a log-in procedure. Content manage websites is a further refinement on the database driven dynamic site. The content management system provides a password protected interface through which users can add, edit and remove content from the site. A content management system is particularly useful in the case of large sites which have numerous contributors, some of whom may be working from remote locations. Ecommerce website is a dynamic website which has the functionality to process financial transactions.  Many ecommerce sites also include a content management system, so that product details can be added or updated, and some include advanced features such as automated stock control. Flash websites is propriety software developed by Macromedia which is used to generate complex animations. Flash websites can be visually stunning and provide otherwise unachievable levels of user interactivity. However, it is almost impossible to carry out any meaningful form of SEO on a Flash site and so it should, generally, be avoided.

     The personal websites contain any kind of information and are usually administered by a single individual. Personal web pages are World Wide Web pages created by an individual to contain content of a personal nature rather than on behalf of an employer or institution. Personal web pages are often used solely for informative or entertainment purposes. The content of personal web pages varies. Many contain biographical information, résumés, and blog posts. Many personal pages will include information about the author's hobbies, interests and information of interest only to friends and family of the author. Hobby websites is generally a fun project or website based on a subject with which you are familiar. Last, is the site map a list of pages of a website accessible to crawlers or users. That’s what I understand about our lesson.
