First of all, we will discuss about writing a blog post.
·
As far as my concern, in the blog post, your own
opinion about the topic plays an important role.
·
There is no need to take any interviews or no
research part is required relating to the topic.
·
Your blog post must be short and sweet.
·
When you are writing a blog post, you need to
include the SEO keywords in the post.
·
Spelling should be correct and you must follow
basic grammar rules.
·
Write in your own casual way.
·
No need of editor, you can publish is by
yourself.
·
Pay rates for blog posts are very low as
compared to the pay rates for articles.
Now, let’s have a look at the key points for writing an article.
·
First and most important thing is, your opinion
is not allowed when you are writing an article on a particular topic.
·
If its related about a person, you need to n
interview them and more research is required.
·
One article should be more than 300 words.
·
Keywords does not play an important role in
writing an article.
·
Spelling and grammar should be precise.
·
Complex way of writing is required.
·
An editor audits it and an article is published
by a print magazine.
·
Pay rates are much higher as compared to blog
posts.
However, apart from these differences, there is a
convergence taking place between an article and a blog. Nowadays, even blog
posts consist of interesting information and much research is taking place to
write a particular blog post. Also, blog posts are no way shorter and it
consists of more than 1000-2000 words.
Google has reduced SEO keyword density and so keywords
stuffing has lessened in a blog post. Also, blogs are audited by the professionals
and then they are published.
In this digital era, print magazines are not having much
craze and so the articles are published online. In this way, the difference
between writing an article and writing a blog tends to collapse and these two
types of writings are merging into one.
Now, only the main difference is blog posts get less pay and
articles get more pay. One thing you can do, start writing article and also
blogs in an article style. This creates an impression for your clients and
leads you with more successful projects if any.
