Let me just say, a website is anything you put online.

Blog and forum are types of website.

Blog is where you go to read a writers opinion (which might be bullshit). You can only comment in a (most) blog(s). Example of blog is Linda Ikeji's blog.

Forum is something like Nairaland. You get the idea.

There are many types of websites though.

You posted trash, everything is a website there are just different types of a websites... website is not suppose to be a separate entity in that write up... just like e-commerce and social networks are all under website go get ur facts right bruh... PEACE OUT

All are now for making money!

Website can be use to generate money and in fact, primary reason for hosting website are usually information and making money!

Most companies host to get information to people about their product/s and at a click, you can order for such product if interested!

The same applicable to forum!

Forums and blogs are types of websites.

temitayo315:
Blogs, forums, and websites are somehow synonymous but taking a good look at them, you can always differentiate them from their content. If you are familiar with the internet or you are good at surfing through the internet, you probably might have heard about Blogs or websites. Is there really a difference?

BLOG

Think of a blog as a diary where you write and keep every of your thoughts.
Something comes to your mind and you just open your diary and pen it down.

This illustration describes a blog post. It is a means where you share something or a passion online for people to read and learn.

A blog usually has an author often referred to as a blogger. Bloggers are often in control of every content on their blog which can be in form of text, images, audios, videos, and links to other online resources.

A blog is usually for profit making. In other words, people blog in other to generate profit (money making).

Blogs are generally written in an informal or conversational manner whereby comments/discussions or questions are welcomed from the audience.

WEBSITE
websites are majorly developed to provide information and not to engage in discussion.

It is usually formal or written in a professional way. Most website content are static (meaning its content may not change compare to blog sites).

Examples of website are Amazon.com, Jumia.com, or any school website where you get information about registrations, admissions, payments e.t.c.

Websites usually belong to cooperate organizations, companies, businesses & industries, schools, and government agencies, unlike blogs which may be owned by one individual.

Although the line between a blog and a website is very thin, you can always differentiate them through the content and what information or services they provide.

FORUM
Forum is a type of blog which requires group input. It constitutes a group of people or members who come together to share their thoughts or experiences on a subject matter or niche which may either be in sports, politics, religion, education, technology, relationships e.t.c

Forum always has a moderator i.e someone or people who are in charge and controls what topics are being posted on a particular discussion.

One of the most popular forum in Nigeria is Nairaland.com which is Nigeria’s most visited online forum.

In forums, members are all equal. Anyone can start a discussion on a topic and others can reply. In essence, a forum is user-generated content unlike blogs & websites.

So I do hope you get the major difference between blogs, forums, and websites. Based on this, you can decide to start any of these as it may matter to you.

what about goggle, Facebook, Wikipedia, WikiLeaks?

google.com is a website, a search engine.... facebook a website a web app, wikipedia a website knowledge/info base ...wikilead is a blog more like a newspaper website, there all websites...the point is dont confuse website to anyother

Op, if everyone is equal in a forum, why is it that in nairaland forum, some members are more equal than others?

Forum is better

How do you classify Facebook? What is a portal?

Make I fool small waa... ad3n... e dey be paa!!!

A blog is a blog.
A forum is a forum.
A website is website.

That's why a company can have a website and still tell you to read/visit their blog and/or their forum...

You grab?

Imagine this jargon! So Facebook is what? A blog? A website is not limited to what you describe it to be. There's a lot more to a website that your short description. Moreover, all three are websites! You should check the meaning of a website!

All are websites.

Who pushed this to FP?
