Static Templates
Static templates are pre-built HTML layouts that are already coded. They are also referred to as “static HTML” or “static page templates”. Static templates are great for creating simple and basic webpages that don’t require much customization. They are ideal for displaying text and images, and can be used to create basic contact forms and landing pages.
