Blog vs Web Page

A blog is different from a web page.  A website contains static information whereas a blog contains content that is regularly updated, often daily.  Websites generally contain information more specific to one topic, place, business, or service.  They are on the more professional side, and more for the purposes of educating, sharing information, purchasing/selling, creating accounts, etc.  Blogs are more informal, generally created and updated by a person or company, and can contain a variety of subjects and topics depending on what the author chooses to share.  Blogs are also a bit more conversationally interactive in nature as they offer commenting systems where people who visit the blog can reply to posts.  Although websites can offer a similar feature via contact forms and messaging features, in general, a website is more informational and functional rather than conversational.
