These sites are usually built using HTML and CSS, and each page must be manually updated in the code. Static websites are simple and fast, but they can be difficult to maintain if frequent updates are needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main difference between static and dynamic websites is flexibility. Static websites require manual updates, while dynamic websites allow users to make changes quickly and efficiently. This makes WordPress a powerful tool for managing content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Static website explanation<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" data-id=\"62\" src=\"http:\/\/www.crismartinez.matmcc.org\/WordpressHW1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Image-2-1-1024x536.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-62\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.crismartinez.matmcc.org\/WordpressHW1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Image-2-1-1024x536.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.crismartinez.matmcc.org\/WordpressHW1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Image-2-1-300x157.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.crismartinez.matmcc.org\/WordpressHW1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Image-2-1-768x402.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.crismartinez.matmcc.org\/WordpressHW1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Image-2-1-1536x804.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.crismartinez.matmcc.org\/WordpressHW1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Image-2-1.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>What is a Dynamic Website?<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A dynamic website is a type of website that can display different content depending on user interaction or data stored in a database. Unlike static websites, where each page must be manually updated, dynamic websites allow content to change automatically without editing code. Platforms like WordPress are considered dynamic because users can easily add, edit, and manage content through a dashboard. This makes dynamic websites more flexible, interactive, and efficient for regularly updated content such as blogs, news sites, and online stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull
