ImageIf you’re starting, you may wonder what the difference between a website and blog. You may even want to know where to start, especially if you have a limited budget. I’ll share the purpose of each one and you should be able to make the best decision for you and your business.

A website is for sale

The main function of a website is to sell a product or service. You need a domain, hosting, product or service to sell, sales copy and a shopping cart. Those are the main components of a website.

You can spend time complaining about the details are not as important as web design, graphics and logo. But in reality it is not aesthetics. Make sure there is a market for what you’re selling, communicate well in the sales copy and have a shopping cart so your customers can actually buy the product or service. If your site sells, then it serves its purpose.

A Blog is for communication

The main function of a blog is to communicate with their customers. You can create a personal blog, business blog, or both. Think of it as an online journal. You can share any and all:

* Your Thoughts
Opinions *
* Articles
Comments *
* Videos
* Surveys
* Product Information
* Schedules Conference Call, Webinar, Seminar and
* Special Events

 

The possibilities are endless. Blogging is to deepen the relationship with their customers. You can track what you are doing and get a glimpse of their world. It is a great way to distribute information. Additionally, you can turn your blog into an online community where you promote a dialogue among all. What better way to stay on top of what they want is that if you talk to them directly.

Why we need both

You may want to start with one or the other, but I encourage you to incorporate in the future, both in their Internet marketing business. Need ability to sell and communicate with customers. In general, a blog is easier and cheaper to begin with, but definitely need a website to complement it.

Of course, you can use for both functions. You can monetize your blog with affiliate programs and products or service offerings. But be careful not to alienate its customers with best sellers. They want an information space without pressure. You can also give information on a website. Of course, that information will be static in nature because customers will not be able to communicate with you.

Blogs and websites are unique and have very specific objectives. They complement each other. Use both to take advantage of what they have to offer for you and your business.
