Why We Build Static Websites
At Magellan Design, we emphasise the importance of hand-coding websites instead of using generic website builders. This approach grants our clients unmatched customisation and quality that pre-built platforms can't match. By creating clean, efficient code, we tailor every aspect of the site to meet the unique needs of each business, resulting in faster load times and enhanced security.
Hand-coded sites avoid the bloat and limitations often found in website builders, offering greater flexibility and control. Our clients enjoy websites optimised for performance, scalability, and robust security—eliminating the vulnerabilities associated with generic platforms. Additionally, our hosting packages include free site updates for static sites, ensuring that your website remains current and secure over time. This method allows us to deliver visually impressive and durable websites that align perfectly with the specific demands of each industry.
Benefits of Static Websites Over CMS Platforms
For Broadoak Construction, a fast, dependable website was essential to showcase detailed oak framing and restoration work without unnecessary complexity. A static website provides a streamlined solution, built through professional Web Design rather than relying on templates or pre-configured systems.
By removing database dependencies and third-party plugins, the site delivers consistently fast load times and a reduced security footprint. This approach supports strong SEO fundamentals, where performance, clean code, and long-term stability play a critical role in search visibility.
While Web Applications and Custom Web Applications are well suited to data-driven platforms, this project required clarity, longevity, and minimal maintenance. A static architecture, paired with managed Hosting, ensures the website remains reliable without ongoing technical overhead.
The site was developed with On-page SEO and Technical SEO considered from the outset, providing a strong foundation for future growth. When supported by broader Digital Marketing activity, this static build offers an effective, future-proof online presence aligned with the craftsmanship of the business itself.
