Somehow I decided which one I should be going after.
In this blog, I will explain all you need to know about blog vs vlog and other things like the difference between vlogger and youtube and blog and website.
Right from what, how, why, when, where, who along with faq parts in this ultimate guide.
Make sure to read the blog till the end to get all your queries solved related to blog vs vlog.
Without further ado, let’s get started,
Here is a 30,000-foot view of the blog.
What is a blog?
A blog is in the simplest form is called an informational website, like this one you are reading.
It is a shortened term of the weblog.
Blog vs the website.
Many people misunderstand blog with a website.
Here are a few differences between blog and website you must know to avoid the misconception of both.
A blog is a type of website where it is frequently updated.
In the case of a website, the content is not updated, it remains static, unlike the blogs.
Both blogs and websites have static pages like about, privacy policy, terms, and conditions, contact us which are not updated frequently but in terms of the information uploaded on the blogs are quite frequently uploaded and updated regularly, and in blogs, we call it posts.
The posts in the blogs typically include media files like images, screenshots, graphics, videos, gifs, etc, based on the content format.
What is the structure of blogs?
Note: We are talking about blog posts and pages not the homepage of blogs.
Blogs’ structure is divided into 4 different parts.
- Header[head part or top].
- content[content part].
- Sidebar[side part of blog].
- Footer[foot part or end part of the blog].
Here is an image of how blogs is structured in:
In the header part, you will have different things related to blogs like logo, navigation menu, social media icons. search bar.
The next thing is the content part where the content of that specific topic is present.
In the sidebar, there will be a variety of sections like about the author, some recent posts, a call to action, some archives to different categories of blogs.
The footer contains different sections like recent comments, recent posts, some essential details of the blog, etc.
All these sections depend on the blog to blog, but in general, this is how the structure of the blog is going to be like.
how the blog works?
Blogs display information in reverse chronological order which means the latest published post appears first and vice versa.
Blogs are divided in 4 different sections, they are
- Posts.
- Categories.
- Tags.
- Menus.
lets know each.
Posts refer to the separate pages of content that are published on the blog.
Categories, as we all know, are the section where the relevant content to a specific topic is organized and arranged than randomizing it which gets easier for the reader to separate posts on topic wise.
Tags basically refer to what the content is all about on the page.
Coming to menus, it is that you see in the header part of the website.
home, blogging, guide’s, ideas, improvement, inspiration, about us.
These menus are paths that lead to different areas of content published on the blog.
Whats the purpose of blogs?
All these blog posts are written to rank in Google or other search engines like bing and yahoo where the audience who is searching for some query gets their answers through these blogs being ranked on google.
Ranking in top positions of search engines means more clicks, more traffic,more customers, more sales and growth of the blog and business as whole.
Google and other search engines acts as a middle man here to users, audiences as consumers, and bloggers as publishers.
Google ranks the blogs on the top 10 positions of the results page which is called SERPs analyzing the millions of blogs indexed at their database on 200 different factors.
Here are the 5 most important factors you need to remember to rank well on google.
- Quality content.
- Quality and relevant backlinks.
- Dwell time.
- CTR.
- Site loading speed.
If you do not know what backlinks, dwell time and ctr is then, here is what they mean.
Backlinks are links that are directing to your post from other sites in your industry.
What is quality backlink then?
Quality backlink means the relevancy of the backlink.
For example, if you have written a blog post on how to start affiliate marketing from scratch and you have got a backlink from a website which talks about cats and puppies, that is totally irrelevant and it looks shitty to google, harms your site as well.
Coming to dwell time is when a user clicked your site on a search engine like google, how much time is he staying on that site.
The more and higher the time someone stays on your site, the better for your site, and google’s algorithm thinks that people like that content, hence it gives a ranking boost.
Ctr is how many people have seen your site on search engine/ to how many people actually clicked on it.
Here is a quick video of how google search engine works actually.

How did blogging start/ history of blogging?
Since 1994, a college student called Justin hall created a site called links.net. where he could do his writing online, the site was pretty simple containing few links and photos which this guy found to be interesting online.
In 1997, Jorn Barger coined the term weblog which was actually logged of his internet activity.
In that time, those blogs were confined to as online diaries and personal pages, like more or less a journal.
In 1999, a programmer called Peter Mergholz shortened the term from weblog to blog.
During that period, many new blogging platforms came up like bloggers, Xanga, and Livejournal.
Blogger, as we all know it today, was actually created by a company called Pyra Labs in 1999, which was later acquired by Google in 2003, the money was undisclosed by google.
As time passed by WordPress was now launched on May 27, 2003, it was found by Matt Mullenweg, and mike little with little templates and a new admin interface, and the plugins section was introduced one year later to make it more easy and convenient, and functional.
Many people started looking at blogging as a professional career from the time of 2004 when google officially bought bloggers and made it free to use and introduced the AdSense policy to show third party ads on blogs and earn money.
Why most people start blogging?
There are various reasons people blog, here are a few reasons.
- To share knowledge and expertise.
- To earn money.
- To gain fame, popularity, and confidence.
- To improve communication skills.
- To build an online brand.
- To escape the rat race and 9-5 job.
- To improve their network of people.
There are many reasons why people blog.
Check out,
As a matter of fact,
- The number of bloggers in the united states is about to reach 31 million people by 2020.
- On WordPress alone, 70 million blog posts are published every month.
- By March 2019, it was that 4.4 million blog posts were published every day and it is increasing.
Why most people quit blogging?
There is no doubt that blogging is an extremely competitive industry.
Look,
A staggering 4.4 million blog posts are published on the internet every single day.
It is very competitive.
More people are blogging than ever before and because more people are blogging it is also that more people are quitting blogging than ever before.
I will state some reasons why most people quit blogging eventually and how you can avoid quitting.
1. Selecting the wrong niche/ having an escape to a hard-work mentality.
Don’t get driven by what’s your favorite blogger’s niche is and their earning in it.
Having an interest in the niche you are blogging is the most important thing in your blogging journey.
According to a study, the google algorithm is designed in such a way that it regularly fluctuates the newly created websites ranks on google in the first year.
- For more information, read here.
If you are not interested in the niche you are blogging on, you would quit today or tomorrow because of no growth in your blog and it is quite inevitable.
Talking about hard work there is no replacement for hard work in blogging, if you are not willing to work hard in blogging, blogging is not meant for you.
2. Many think they will earn money instantly.
No.
Starting a blog is easy but monetizing a blog is not.
You need the traffic to earn money.
The major source of traffic comes from google which is organic and it compiles 60% of the traffic of most of the blogs and the Google algorithm is designed in such a way that your rankings will fluctuate quite a lot in the first year of blogging.
You need to have the patience to start earning through your blog.
Where there is a lack of patience there is a lack of success.
3. No uniqueness in your content/ you are not a good writer.
You are just like millions of bloggers on the internet.
You are just publishing that same lame content which is published million times on the internet.
If you publish that same lame content, your blog will be one among the 94% of blogs that don’t get any external links and organic traffic from google.
Always remember. Don’t publish the blog for the sake of publishing it, publish blogs if you really think it can outrank your competitors and it has provided 5x times more value than what your competitors have provided.
There are many ways you can make your content more unique, like
- Using facts and case studies in your content.
- Embedding other media types like videos, screenshots, gifs, custom images, infographics.
- Larger wordcount of the post.
- Better readability and design of the post.
- The better user experience of the post with fewer grammatical mistakes.
- Make your content more actionable.
There are many other reasons why most people quit blogging eventually such as,
Some other reasons people quit blogging eventually.
- Not having the right technical knowledge and doing SEO properly.

What’s the future of blogging?
The future of blogging is not dark.
I don’t mean it is bright as well.
People have been preferring to consume content in other formats such as
- Videos.
- Podcasts.
- Animations.
The consumption of the content in these formats has increased quite a lot.
That does not mean that blogging is going to die in the future.
Remember the fact is that.
- 77% of internet users read blogs often.
- Reading is the best to exercise to keep the brain active and functioning well.
- Blogs have been considered the 5th most trusted source of online information.
- Businesses that blog gets twice more traffic and email subscribers than those which don’t blog because blogging increases the credibility of a business.
- Remember 70% of internet users prefer knowing about brands and companies through blogs than ads.
All these facts remain relevant in the future as well.
The clear cut answer is blogging is not going to die due to an increase in competition or due to changing content consumption preferences but the way blogging was done is going to change.
Here are a few trends and predictions about the future of blogging.
- There is an increase in demand for quality content, as a matter of fact, 94% of the total content on the internet do not get any backlinks, traffic, and shares at all, the reason could be a lack of better content.
- Mobile responsiveness is going to remain key.
- You must focus on building a brand, google loves brands more than anything.
- Other than blogs, you must repurpose your blog content into videos and podcasts as their consumption is on the rise as well.
- Focus more on user experience and engagement than anything.
Blogging is going to stay relevant in the future as well, no matter what because, to grow online, you need to have a website.
Having a website or blog is really helpful.
- It gives you an edge to beat your competitors in your business who just have a social media page.
- The fact is that 60% of buyers read blogs before purchasing products on the internet.
Other than businesses, people who want to build a personal brand online, they must know that having a blog is secure
Despite social media being huge it is not secure.
We have seen it in cases with data security in TIKTOK, and Instagram.
These platforms are controlled by private capitalist groups which can do anything they want with the data they have of the billions of people using it worldwide.
In the case of Facebook, Instagram, Mark Zuckerberg who is the owner of these platforms can do anything with the data he has in his database of these platforms of billions of people worldwide using it.
- Social media is not a secure place to grow and build a brand online.

Blog vs vlog: Which one is the best?
Here it is up to you to choose which one you should be going after but I will provide some clarity and point of view here to choose the best one.
We will classify both in 3 factors:
- Earning.
- Future and growth potential.
- Input vs output.
In terms of earning.
The average earning of a blogger in the USA is 13 dollars an hour.
The average earning of a vlogger in the USA is 5 dollars per 1000 video views
The earning varies through different factors like niche, country, and traffic.
There are both good opportunities of earning in both blog and vlog.
In terms of the future.
Vlogs have a bright future than blogs.
- Video content drives 50x times more traffic than text.
The future of vlogs is very bright, there is a huge scope of growth and potential of success in vlogs but blogs have its own specialties too.
- 77% of internet users read blogs often.
- Businesses that blog gets twice more traffic and 97% of more traffic than those who don’t.
- Blogs are secure.
- 70% of consumers prefer knowing about companies through blogs than ads.
Both blogs and vlogs have their pros and cons.
But in terms of future and higher potential and growth, vlogs has the upper hand.
Let’s look at it another way, like input and output.
Input vs output.
In order to be a blogger, it takes a lot of hard work to run a blog.
- You need to look after your site.
- You need to write blogs.
- You need to promote blogs and build backlinks.
- You need to do SEO and use other multimedia and embed in your blogs.
- It takes a lot of time and patience to run a blog.
- You need to manage your social media profiles as well.
In order to be a vlogger, you need to put similar work and input.
- Of course, you need to write down your topics.
- Write a script for the video.
- Record videos and edit them which consume the most time in vlogging.
- You do not need to build backlinks or do any other work other than vlogging.
In both cases, if you look, running a blog is slightly requires more time and effort than running a vlog.
In terms of success in both, you see.
- 80% of all internet traffic will be from videos by 2021.
- Average of 40 minutes every person who uses youtube spend watching videos on it.
- 86% of youtube viewers watch youtube to learn things.
There is a higher scope of success in vlogging than blogging.
In blogging.
- 94% of all content on the internet does not get any backlinks or traffic or social share.
- With the regular changes and updates in search engine giant Google and the introduction of new features like featured snippets, it reduces traffic to other blogs ranking in the top 10.
- Blogging is much more competitive now than a vlog, every day 4 million blog posts are published on the internet.
- Even then, if people want to do research on something in-depth, they prefer blogs first.
The final verdict.
Now it is your turn, it totally depends on you which one you should pursue.
It is not all about facts, it depends on your interests as well.
Even with all the facts if you still love writing, you should probably go after blogging along with vlogging in the near future.
I think why not choose both blog and vlog.
You can satisfy both and capture both audiences and build a better brand of yours.
Website and blog help your brand to maintain credibility and vlogs help in marketing your brand.
You won’t miss out on anything if you choose both.
There are many bloggers who turned vlogging, such as:
- Ahrefs.
- Neil Patel.
- Gotch SEO.
- Backlinko.
- Shoutmeloud and many more.
All these famous bloggers in their respective niches have built a brand and loyal audience and satisfying the different audiences.
Having a vlog if you choose a blog helps you reach out and tap into the audience you couldn’t have reached it by means of blogs, vice-versa.
