Blogs versus Web Pages

Many people find themselves wondering what the difference is between blogs and traditional web pages.

A web page tends to contain static information or data that a visitor to that site is looking for.  There typically is little, if any, direct interaction that occurs between the the entity that creates and maintains the web page, and the people that access the page.

While a blog is a form of web page, the content tends to be more dynamic, changing regularly to reflect new and updated information that the author chooses to write about.  Visitors may or may not share similar ideals and opinions as the blog author, and blogs support interactions between the blog author and their visitors via posts, messaging applications or other social media tools.
