2 Part Series: Blog vs Website… Websites


Websites are better suited to Commercial ventures than Blogs. If you have products and/or services for public consumption a website may be your better alternative.

Advantages:

~~ Static… No need to change everyday, only update as necessary.

~~ Products… You can advertise, sell and promote your own products and services.

~~ Navigation… Set up navigation by product types and various categories.

~~ Expandable… As you add additional products, add pages to cover descriptions and features.

~~ Links… By category to various products and related wares.

~~ Customers… Sales are only a few steps away, customers are looking for something to buy.

~~ Files… Easy Upload and Download of new files and backups.

Disadvantages:

~~ Static… Also a disadvantage because SEO likes updates.

~~ Visitors… Must continually get new visitors, rarely get returns.

~~ Community… Webpages are all onesided, no interaction with customers.

~~ SEO… People have to be able to find you, updating for SEO more difficult than Blogs.

As I said about Blogs, these are not the only possibilities, so feel free to add your thoughts.
