Introduction
Does your company need a website?
While there has been a lot of advancements when it comes to creating 
websites, what just might work are the basics, like a static site. 
Static sites have content that are already fixed, and also do not have to be 
generated, unlike dynamic websites that have a lot of codes and processes to 
go through.
Compared to dynamic websites, a static site is straightforward.
Data to Distribute
Static content hosting is simply putting the content in the cloud, directing the static site CDN to the 
cloud, and activating the CDN.
In this way, whatever data needs to be brought to the website visitors is pretty much decided already, 
and does not need to be generated.
Dynamic data has to be created upon the request or input of the website visitor.
Static content hosting will include preloaded data, such as texts, pictures, and videos.
In other words, the static site CDN has an easier time, compared to other CDNs that will have to house 
apps that do complicated data generation, or certain protocol that will have to be generated over and 
over again per website visit.
Website Management
Since static content hosting is concerned with pre-generated data, the static site CDN will only be bothered to 
deliver those files to the website visitors.
Static content hosting means not having to possess apps and app data that are often large and may take too 
long to be uploaded or to update, while static site CDN files are either smaller in storage space, or are easier to 
“update”. 
By updating, what we mean here is simply deleting the file, and replacing it with its better version. Sounds 
pretty easy, right?
Dynamic websites have to keep their apps updated so that the data they generate will always be accurate, and 
website maintenance in this regard can be a lot more complicated compared to simple uploading of new files 
for the static site CDN.
Static Website
Another notable advantage of static content hosting is how adaptable it is to the website 
visitors.
CDN can simply scale down the preloaded data so that it will manifest better to any website 
visitor, regardless of their bandwidth issues, such as with distance or connection strength.
Through static content hosting, the static site CDN may also have image CDN or video CDN 
capabilities that will scale down photos or videos so that they will still appear in any browser.
Thus, a static site CDN keeps it a lot simpler and more straightforward.
Conclusion
While static content hosting sounds like a simple yet good endeavor, there is a lot more 
to it.
Putting up a static site CDN may appear easy and doable in a short amount of time, but 
it’s imperative that you get to know more about options for static site CDNs and static
