All my sites so far have been HTML, but I now have one database driven site.

I have to say that my HTML sites outperform the database site, but that is just because it is so new and not really the way I want it to be.

The beauty of a database driven store is that it is easy to change everything in one move, something that would take hours any other way. You can also customize your site to make it more SE friendly, take out the CGI-BIN from the URL etc etc.

If you are selling only a few products, then just stick to a simple HTML site. A database would be overkill for a small site.

Just my 2 cents worth ...
