blog is like a personal diary,
web is like, internet pages of interest.
Blogs are mainly just for hobby purposes.

4 Blog and Website Differences
(1) The main difference between a blog and website is the communication style. A website is a noticeboard communication style. A blog is designed for interactive communication.
(2) Blogs encourage conversation, websites do not and that’s why businesses with websites are adding blogs, and sometimes forums and wikis to them for complaint handling, customer feedback purposes and for collaborative purposes.
(3) Blogs publish current news with date and time stamps, most websites do not. The information most websites provide is static, rarely updated, and the sites are often poorly maintained.
(4) Blogs have RSS feeds, websites ALONE do not.

  On one hand search engine optimization applies to blogs as they are indexed by Google and given PageRanks. On the other, websites do not have PageRanks. Many websites are not frequently updated. Blogs are frequently updated.

Can we also add this to the list. One has more control over website. It can be customized according to one's want or needs.

  One can have complete control over a wordpress install because it's not just blogging software; it can be used to create a complete CMS (content management system).

a Blog takes the webmaster equation out of the website as its requirement
