* All the pages in your website should have a common structure.
* 'Include files' should have a common code.
* Create rollover buttons/images in Dreamweaver.

Good starter points from — below are practical, Dreamweaver-specific steps and alternatives you can apply immediately to reduce maintenance and improve performance.

Use Dreamweaver templates and library items to centralize repeating structure, then keep visual rules in external CSS so a single edit updates the site. Favor CSS-based interactions instead of separate image swaps: they load faster and are easier to maintain. Example of a simple CSS-sprite hover pattern:

.button {
  display: inline-block;
  width: 120px;
  height: 40px;
  background: url('button-sprite.png') 0 0 no-repeat;
}
.button:hover {
  background-position: 0 -40px;
}

Workflow tips: define your site in Dreamweaver before you start (correct local/remote mappings keep links stable), use Live View and browser previews for layout checks, validate output with the W3C validator, and keep assets in the Assets/Files panels to avoid broken paths. Use Git or another VCS for history rather than relying solely on the built-in FTP history.

If you want, @rajarajan2017 try converting one page to a template first and test the CSS approach above. , if you find parts unhelpful, say which step or problem you want solved and we will give a focused fix. For details see Dreamweaver templates and the CSS :hover guidance: and MDN :hover.
