    it used to be all websites only few years ago and now lot of people are using blogs as their websites.

    for websites, you need to develop each page seperately and upload it to yuor web server, then link it properly from your site navigation. lot of manual work involved in additional to some website building skill requirement.

    for blogs, it is only used to be for bloggers who would write on certain topics or more for online diaries. but due to the introduction to some user friendly CMS like wordpress, drupal, joomla, etc, lot of site owners are using blogs as their websites. there is no programming knowledge needed to write and publish a blog and considering the fact is that there is a database built in to the CMS, you dont have to manually link or categorize your individual pages. just more user friendly and search engine friendly for which more and more people are leaning towards blogs these days

    Well most of the time all pages including main page of website are static where as it is constantly changing in case of a blog.To run a Blog your entire focus can be on the content.But in case of website you should concentrate on coding also.When a Website is updated there is usually no feature that automatically notifies your readers of the update. Blogs are usually setup with a RSS feed for viewers to subscribe to. This RSS feed will notify your readers when you have updated your Blog with a new post.Static Websites do not track conversations between Webmasters and Readers.Many ways to notice communication between bloggers and readers like comments,trackback, permalink,e.t.c.

    Hello,

    In a blog there is a main page which contains of bog post which are nothing but personals comments and post about that particular blog.There is a way that content is posted recently in a blog always comes on the first page with top rank.So the basic difference is that you have a constant page in case of website whereas you can have the change in home page while blog posting where you can leave the comments and interact with the other users.

    Generally speaking, blogs can form either your entire presence on the web, or just a part of it. A blog is just the journal portion of your website.

    Blog is basically a part of a website in which you provide useful information according to current trends. But website is a clear view of your business

    you are asking a very confusing question because you are relating it to SEO, right?
    So from SEO point of view, blogs are much better because the blog platforms such as wordpress and joomla are helping you to blast your content to search engines. Everything is so organized with plugins that will help you get much better results with your seo campaign.

    Blogs are small articles where people can interact and post comments. Blog is a subset of website. Now don't start asking what is the difference between a website and a portal :p
