The difference between Blog And Essay
“Content, in writing (Blogging/Essay), is supreme.”
To develop a healthy mind, content writing regardless of any particular language plays a fundamental role. It helps us to identify different kinds of questions and then establish a sense to clarify the ideas to solve the question or topic not only to the writer but also to the readers who read his/her content. Moreover, it also helps the writer to think critically about the situation, the ideas, or the material they are reading about, be optimistic about the material, and get the information from the source without being biased.
There are many types of content writing but the most common or the famous are these two Essay and Blog Writing. The first one is present in the world perhaps for centuries and a part of academic practice to write on a given topic to improve students writing skills but the latter one is the latest and modified version due to its link with the technology and it also becomes a career to be adopted.
The biggest difference between blogs and essays is the given information they provide to their readers. An essay is all about the information or the ideas about a person or specific moment while a blog is more about the experience and anecdote (an actual story about the real person or incident) of the writer.
Blogging or Blog writing is a kind of writing in which information is provided on personal experiences. Its tone must be informal and friendly similar to the way we talk to our friends. In a blog, the content writer not just writes text but also can add images, quotes, and gifs, and even sarcastic (harsh or straightforward comments) can be approved by the readers because we know that blogging is all about biased information and experience. From its beginning, it was defined as an online diary but in the present era, it can be defined as a tool, skill, or profession as a source of income.
We are living in an era where the development of technology and affordable internet is at its peak, even an average or common person who has access to the internet can read the old contents "you can say, present on the varied earth" and review them. As blogging is all about personal experience and information, so we can say that blogging comes in different types as a blog is about education, information, politics, cooking, and fitness. In blogging the length of an article or blog does matter. The research shows that a blog should be more than 1000 words as it will be approved quickly as long it will be. It does not mean that blog will always convey its message in lengthy content. Some information can be delivered in just 300 words.
Blogging is not just about reviewing a common topic, it is a vast field in which the writer requires to find an interesting and most importantly the trending topic to make it relatable to the readers. In this present technological era, where everyone is connected to technology more than being physically social to other people, a blogger can share personal and funny anecdotes for getting more views.
An essay is a type of information or thoughts provided to people from a professional s point of view. Unlike a blog, an essay is all about a single topic, well-structured, informal, and grammatically correct. For students, it is a basic and necessary tool because it can help them in the development of optimism towards a specific topic and also show their ideas or understanding about a certain topic or things.
An essay must contain a proper structure that consists of three things, an introduction (what the essay is all body) that tells the reader what the essay is all about, Body which is the largest and the most important part of an essay, and finally the conclusion (which is the final verdict of the topic)
Content Writing (Blogging/Essay) is undoubtfully a skill that can be achieved by hardworking and reading a lot. Content writing in both blogging and essay perspectives are important in their own ways, as one can help the author to be more focused that what he is writing while the other one can help an author to add a personal touch to his /her writing. But blogging is more effective with the rise of social media because in bogging the author can be aware of the likes and dislikes of his/her readers. Especially with paid promotions and ads, SEO (Search Engine Optimization) a blogger can make its blog trending.
