Tekstisivusto

Tekstisivusto is a Finnish term that translates to "text website" or "text-based website." It refers to a website that primarily relies on written content and avoids or minimizes the use of multimedia elements such as images, videos, or complex animations. Historically, with limited bandwidth and less sophisticated web technologies, many websites were text-based. These sites were often characterized by their simple layouts and focus on delivering information efficiently.

The concept of a tekstisivusto has seen a resurgence in certain contexts. For example, some users prefer text-based browsing for speed, to conserve data, or due to accessibility needs. Developers might also choose a text-heavy design for performance optimization, particularly for mobile devices or areas with poor internet connectivity. Furthermore, the rise of minimalist design trends has led to aesthetically pleasing websites that prioritize typography and clear content organization over visual flair. While the internet has largely evolved to incorporate rich media, the principles of a tekstisivusto remain relevant for certain applications and user preferences, emphasizing clarity, speed, and direct communication of information.
