HTML Website Hosting

Some of the highest-ranking websites are less than 10 pages. They're fast, economical websites that do their job and nothing but.  What do they use for development? HTML.

HTML is probably the most affordable website development you can do.  They’re simple and straightforward—coding in HTML takes less time than coding in an advanced programming language like ASP.NET.

HTML is also standardized. If a certain method isn't approved by the W3C (the international HTML standards body), it doesn't work.

When you want a simple HTML website focused on one purpose, PlanetMagpie is the place to go.  We’ll not only build the website using the latest HTML5 standards (native video, mobile-friendly), but we’ll host the site once it’s done.  You give the OK and it’s live within minutes.

HTML websites are no more difficult to secure than any other website, but you do have to have proper security in place.  Every HTML website hosted in PlanetMagpie’s datacenters gets the same protection as an enterprise-grade Sitefinity website.

Plus, PlanetMagpie’s Web Development team can take care of all content updates in-house!

Call us for any updates you need to your HTML sites, including:

  • New website content and images
  • New webpages / removal of old webpages
  • SEO and link updates
  • Online form development or troubleshooting
  • Adding new features (video and audio clips, email marketing captures, web analytics, etc.)

Call PlanetMagpie Web Development at 510-344-1180 to ask about an HTML website hosting and updates!
