Characteristics
The following are the characteristics of a website
A website is a cluster of different webpages and can include text, media, and other content.

A website is presented by a unique domain address.

A website takes more time to develop than a webpage.

A website is comparatively complex to develop.

Key differences between Webpage and Website

1. A webpage is a single document on the Internet under a unique URL. In contrast, a website is a collection of
multiple webpages in which information on a related topic or other subject is linked together under a domain
address.

2. A webpage is a smaller part of any website having content and links to other webpages. On the contrary, a
website is a platform that contains various webpages addressed to certain URLs (Uniform Resource Locators).

3. Each website includes a unique domain address, and all the webpages are linked under a particular domain,
which means webpages are dependent on the domain. On the other side, the website does not depend on any
of its web pages. It keeps on working even after ceratin webpages are deleted.

4. A webpage usually includes the extension in its URL, such as .html, .php, .aspx, .js, etc. Besides, the website
address is free from any such extension.

5. A webpage URL may contain a file path (Resource Path) wherein it is stored on the server. The website
doesn’t include any path because it is directly attached to the registrar’s server’s unique IP address.

6. A website is simply a place that allows developers to display the contents and attach hyperlinks. On the
other hand, a web page is a content or a document itself that is to be displayed on the website.

7. The development, designing, and maintenance of the website take more time than a webpage. As stated
above, the web page is just a smaller part of the website, so it takes comparatively less time.
8. The overall structure of the website and its programming is relatively complex. However, webpages are easy
to develop once the website has been structured.

9. Typically a webpage contains content about a solitary entity or a topic, whereas the website is a place that
contains content from different entities or topics linking certain hyperlinks.

Note: It is important to note that the two terms ‘Webpage’ and ‘web page’ are the same. However, most
people prefer to use ‘Web page’ rather than ‘Webpage’. Similarly, the terms ‘Website’ and ‘Web site’ are the
same.
