This is why these kinds of pages are referred to as <strong>Static Pages.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The key distinction between the so-called <em>business websites<\/em> and <em>online e-commerce portals<\/em> is that they deliver information about organization itself rather than transacting online business.<\/p> \r\n\r\n<p>This is why a plain <strong>HTML<\/strong> based template is considered to be the most straightforward way of creating a successful <em>corporate<\/em> website.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"custom\">There are two major ways of setting up a business website<\/h3> \r\n\r\n<ul class=\"list\">\r\n\t<li><p><strong>The first one is purchasing a regular <em>html<\/em> based template.<\/strong><\/p><\/li>\r\n\t<li><p><strong>And the second is a subscription-based template.<\/strong><\/p><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The advantage of the first is definitely a price.<\/p> \r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/blog\/create-website-2017-ultimate-guide\/\" title=\"How much does it cost to build a website?\" target=\"_blank\">How much does it cost to build a website?<\/a> Normally, these templates are priced at around &#36;50 per a <em>life-time single-site license<\/em>.\r\nA disadvantageous aspect of these templates might be that at least fundamental understanding of <em>HTML<\/em> and <em>CSS<\/em> would be of the essence to be able to edit the content.<\/p>\r\nAlso, a <em>hosting plan<\/em> along with <em>domain name<\/em> would be required to provide hosting environment for the website.\r\n<p>A good alternative to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/website-templates.php\"><em>HTML<\/em> templates<\/a> would be <strong>CMS<\/strong> based ones, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/wordpress-themes.php\"><strong>WordPress themes<\/strong><\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/joomla-templates.php\"><strong>Joomla templates<\/strong><\/a> which are equipped with the admin panel thus allowing creation and modification of digital front-end content using a user-interface without editing the actual source code.

The user experience is limited only to the admin panel.<\/p>\r\n<p>The other distinctive downside worth being mentioned is the functionality.<\/p> \r\n<p>Since the websites of a particular type are equipped with many different options, their code is a lot heavier which affects the loading speed. The website performance is one of the key factors which affect SEO. Slow websites with the messy source code are strongly discouraged by <em>search robots<\/em>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Regarding the facts mentioned above,<\/strong> the most rational and effective option for building a successful <em>business website<\/em> is definitely a low-cost <em>HTML<\/em> based <a href=\"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/category\/business-website-templates\/\">business website template<\/a> with lightweight code, efficient performance and clean design.<\/p>\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=st-iX-C4sS4?width=1280&amp;height=720\" rel=\"prettyPhoto\">How to Create a Business Website<\/a>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"inline-banner\">\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/cart.php?addOffer=587\">\r\n<img src=\"\/help\/files\/banners\/inline\/Banner-1-(500-x100).jpg\" \/>\r\n<\/a>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a professional template to build a website, view <a href=\"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/category\/business-wordpress-themes\/\">most popular wordpress themes for business<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This tutorial provides an explanation on what is the business website and how to create it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":111,"featured_media":72526,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[724,1016,728],"tags":[2333,693,645],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72525"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/111"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=72525"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72525\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":83465,"href":"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72525\/revisions\/83465"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/72526"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=72525"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=72525"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.templatemonster.com\/help\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=72525"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
