What is a Blog?

A blog is slightly different from a standard website because it may not have permanent web pages. You can use the WordPress Content Management System (CMS) to create blogs, websites, and websites with blogs.

The content that appears on a blog can vary greatly. Blogs were more informal and often run by a single person in the past. Blog posts were often viewed more like diary entries when blogs and bloggers first became popular.

However, today blogs can be much more professional and elaborate. Now, informational and long-form blog posts with high-quality content are common.

Therefore, a blog can sometimes be run by a small team or a group of contributors. Furthermore, many blogs are monetized via paid advertising or affiliate marketing.
