A website usually has static text, meaning it doesn't change often and when it does, the new text replaces the old.

A blog, or web log, is an online journal. An individual (or team) posts entries that appear in sequence with previous entries. Technically a blog IS a website, but I think for your purposes it makes sense to separate them.

Isn't a blog where someone posts new updates regularly. Often about their own life or hobbies. Whatever topic they feel about writing. Where as a website is usually more often used to sell items. Etc..
Opps, Julie explained it so much better than I could. And is obviously more aware of internet things. I consider myself an internet idiot.

When I think of a "blog" there is ongoing written dialog discussing something. A website I guess could have a blog included but is more of where you get information on a business, place, etc..
