If these variables can change their values after application has been built then web.config is the best place to store them. Other options can be database, registry or in short, any persistent medium. Of course, to use these values through-out your application, you should have a wrapper static class that will expose these settings as properties. Settings will be read once at application start-up (or on demand whenever first requested.)
