Static web pages (sometimes called flat pages/stationary pages ) are web pages that are delivered to users exactly as they are stored, in contrast to dynamic web pages generated by web applications.
As a result, static web pages display the same information for all users, from all contexts, subject to the modern capabilities of the web server to negotiate the content type or language of the document in which the version is available and the server is configured to do so.

Overview
Static web pages are often HTML documents that are stored as files in the file system and are provided by web servers via HTTP (but URLs ending in ".html" are not always static). However, the loose interpretation of the term may include web pages stored in the database, and can even include pages that are formatted using templates and presented through the application server, as long as the page presented does not change and is presented as being stored basically.
Static web pages are suitable for content that never or seldom needs to be updated, even though modern static site generators are changing. Maintain a large number of static pages because files can become impractical without automated tools, such as Static site generators described in Web template systems. Every personalization or interactivity must run client-side, which limits.
