The article is intended to be informational purposes,and not with the intent of taking a stab at the internet. I believe everyone is a noob at anything, as there is always something more tolearn than what youknewbefore.So, the first thing younotice after you wander around the internet for a few hours is that you notice tons of websites and blogs sprawling petabytes of bandwidth.
The first question that arises to many of them is what exactly a website is and what is a blog ?Many of them tendto confuse onewith the other and interpret ananswer oftheir own will. So,let’s just clear the air and reveal the difference between a blog and a website.
The basic difference between a blog and a websiteis theoretically the differencein how data is being presented – the format. Apart from that, in practicality there is a fine line between a blog and a website, not much toponderabout however.There is somekey differences betweenthem and the=is should clarify as towhat youshould gowith for creating and publishing your content.
NOTE:Please don’t ask which is the easiest way to make money. Because there is none. It takes a lot of patience,persistence and hardwork to make money on the internet.What is a Blog?
A blog is basically a web log that a blogger makes use for chronological listing of blog posts .A blog has the most recent content shown first followed by the previously updated content.A blog can be easily startedwith services like , , etc.and do not need you to start something from the scratch, providing you with the entire system including design templates.
A blog thrives onnew content and more updated it is, the more attention itwillget. That doesn’t mean tons of scraps will equal gold mine.Quality and regularly updated content are examples of a good blog.

A websitein return can be anything. Anything on the internet presented in HTML/CSS or Java/Javascript/Python/Php, etc. comprises of a website.A website may be complimented with a blog,but the home page wouldbe more for browsing other pages and not just posts. Fullyfunctional and eye-catchy websites are usually costconsuming tasks as youwould have to buildfrom the base up. However with platforms and services like Adobe Dreamweaver,you could build your own website.
A blog can be a part of a website,in the form of a separate page and linked tothe homepage. A website is a bigger aspect and its limitations are little to none.A website could be anything from a single page to a 1 Billion- users social network (Say, Facebook).

What you exactly want is what you need.Firstly, decide what do you exactly intend to do? If you are more concerned with creating contenton a regular basis for others toread, you should gowith a blog.
If you want full featured online portalwith many abilities and infinitesimal possibilities, you should go with a website. If youhave a company,thentoo youmust have a website combined with a blog. But make sure you know a good deal of coding before you jump infor makinga websiteorshellout a little money and the coding work.One thing which you should know that most popular blogging platform ‘WordPress’ can always be use as a Website,and youwillget advantage ofSEOand easy management.
