Blog different from a Regular website

How is a Blog different from a Regular website ?

Many people are confused about the difference between a blog and a website. There isn’t any difference, a blog resides on a website. A business website includes their aim or mission, their contact details, information about products or services. This information isn't updated very often and this is what we call a website is. A company might have a blog on the website that talks about the latest news, job openings, special events or other items of interest. This part of the site might be updated daily or weekly, though it’s a blog, it’s part of the rest of the website.

• A blog is a way to publish to the Internet frequently like sending an email. But a website require technical skills.
• A blog is updated frequently, with chronologically-ordered, dated posts.  A website is frequently static information, and the order and sequence depends on the purpose of the site.
• A blog is written in a personal voice A website's text has the whole teams in the marketing department analyzing every word and link on the home page altogether technical.
• A blog allows the audience to interact - so they can post comments to your individual posts, and link from their blog to your posts.  This allows a conversation to occur between the writer and the audience.
• With a blog the content is distributed much more broadly than on a website.  In a blog, the content is separate from the formatting it means it decouples the “content from the “presentation”. A blog is encapsulated in its own message envelope (extension of XML called RSS “Really Simple Syndication”) that can be read by other sites on the Internet.  When I publish something on Internet using a tool that supports RSS, and anyone searching for the related article can automatically receive my release on their site.
• In a website the content and presentation would be coded all together. A website requires Google promotion which will take...2-3 weeks to come on top!  On a blog, it's a few minutes.
• You tend to get better search engine results with a blog because of “content syndication, frequent posts, linking from other sites” which the Google's algorithm require for better listings.
• You can keep up with hundreds of blogs much more efficiently than hundreds of websites.  Because of the RSS feature, you can monitor many blogs by syndicating them, and automatically receive updates whenever their website changes on your PC.
