Blog vs Website

If someone asks you, what is the difference between a blog and a website, would you be able to answer it? If you can answer, that's good but what if you can't? I'm not surprised that there are still some people who don't know the difference.

Yes, both are websites and owned by an individual, a group or an organization. Blogs are usually owned by an individual. The best examples are Blogger blogs. Meanwhile a website is usually owned by an organization. An easy example is ecommerce website such as Ebay.

Blog is an online journal in a website. I think that is the best explanation that i could tell. If you view someone's blog at Blogger, you can tell that a blog contain "stories" like a diary or news, politics and lifestyles.

A website however doesn't contain any "stories" or articles. It usually shows about an organization, what they do, contacts, pictures, activities, reports etc.

Let see the easiest example available that everyone regularly used. The one and only Youtube. Youtube is a website but it has its own blog.


As you can see above, this is the Youtube website. It contain a lot of videos from all around the world and it acts as a place to share or to save videos.

And this is Youtube's blog and it also contains press release to inform about what is going on in the website and any other current news or updates.

Last Words
I hope now everybody will understand what is the difference between a blog and a website. I also want to remove the confusion that everyone have about blogs and websites.

Blogs are getting popular today because almost everyone wants to own a blog whether it's free or paid. These individuals wants their opinion to be known for other especially friends and families. Blogs are also used for them to make money online. If you have a talent to do that, you can expect to have some additional income just by writing articles.

  2. A website is completely different from a blog. A website may contain various aspects reflecting what the site is targeting towards. For example, if a site has information on clothing, then it will have information related to that only. However, a blog is a personalized log/diary of an individual who can maintain and share various topics. For example, a blog may have the author's daily routine, office related topics and other things.

  3. A website is totally different from a blog. A website is always directed to a particular subject or an industry and just include brief information about it. On the other hand, blog includes the daily experiences and routine matters of an author.
