Some companies offer templated websites
whilst SchoolSite
is a custom design solution. For those new to the world
of web design it's quite important to understand the key differences
between the two. A simple explanation and a table of pros
and cons has been created below.
What is a template website?
A template is a basic design made with certain
parameters that can be edited. For a template to work certain
elements must always stay the same, and hereby lies one of
the major limitations of template websites.
Template websites are often cheaper than
custom built bespoke websites and this is because the same
template can be reused hundreds or even thousands of times
for various sites with only slight variations.
The logic and decisions behind making a 'template'
to use and sell to make many template sites, will have been
balanced between intended use and the ability for it to be
quickly changed into another website. Both are of equal importance
to a template designer.
"A designer creating
a bespoke website does so focussed - with the client's needs
totally in mind."
What is a bespoke website?
A bespoke or custom designed website is exactly
that, a website geared specifically for each clients individual
needs and is thus a unique design solution. Some of the pros
and cons of bespoke design and template websites are given
in the table below.
