| Websites usually have a specific structure, which differs from that of the more complicated software solutions. What is specific about them is that their structure (or site map) is constructed from non-homogeneous elements – sections and records in objects. The difference is the result of the fact that a single website represents a variety of information each type of which (news, products, galleries etc) has its own properties and hence has its own business object where records are inserted and managed. The site on the other hand presents this information in a structured way, showing each type of information at a specific place. This positioning defines the usability of a website. This structure is called website information structure. An exemplary part of a website information structure of a software company might look like this:
- Home
- About Us
- News
- Products
- Websites
- Website 1
- Website 2
- Website 3
- Applications
- Application 1
- Application 2
- Application 3
- Team
 | A section is defined by each unique URL in a web site. A section can be either static or dynamic. |  | The way the information is presented on a website is defined by templates. There are two types of templates – master and (normal) templates. Usually a website would have a mainframe, where the information is presented |  | More often than not, the main information from the website is surrounded not only by navigational elements, but also by announcements to other sections of the website |  | Related links are a type of block, which consists of predefined links to other sections in the site. |  | Meta tags are special invisible information fields, which are used to define the goals and the content of the website in a structured way and are exploited by search engines. |  | Part of the sections in a website may contain texts only and are not subject to special business object modeling. |  | Advertising banners (areas) are also a type of block, which however follow the logic of the banner system which is used. | | |
