What is the difference between a blog and a newsletter?

Blogging and newsletters are two effective online marketing tools that business owners can use to reach out to their audiences. However, many people are not sure what the difference between a blog and a newsletter is. In this blog post, we will explore the differences between blogs and newsletters and discuss which one is right for your business. 


Blogs are generally used to share longer pieces of content, while newsletters typically contain shorter, more curated pieces of information. Blogs allow you to share your thoughts and ideas with your audience in-depth, while newsletters give you the opportunity to share links to your content as well as news and updates about your company. 

Ultimately, the best tool for reaching your target audience depends on what type of content you want to share.

To recap:

1. Newsletters are typically sent out monthly or bi-monthly, while blogs are updated more frequently

2. Newsletters usually contain a mix of company news, product updates, and blog posts, while blogs focus mainly on individual blog posts

3. Newsletters often have a more formal tone of voice, while blogs allow for a more informal tone

4. Blogs allow for reader comments and feedback, which newsletters do not typically have

5. A blog is more informal and interactive, while a newsletter is more formal and one-way communication.

Decide which format will work better for your business based on your goals and target audience.

In conclusion, a newsletter is great for periodic updates on your company or brand, while a blog can be used to share more frequent and varied content with your audience. 

Both are valuable tools in your marketing arsenal, but it’s important to understand the differences between them so you can use them most effectively.

#hashtag and @tag

Are you confused between #hastag or @tags ? Here is some clarifications: On Facebook, Instagram and Twitter , the pound sign (or hash) turns any word or group of words that directly follow it into a searchable link.  This allows you to organise content and track discussion topics based on those keywords. So, if you wanted to post about social media for example, you would include #socialmedia  in your post to join the conversation.  You can click on a hashtag to see all the posts that mention the subject in real time. @Tagging people in social media photos can extend the reach of those photos, which is likely why some of us want to tag everyone and their brother – so to speak.  !!! But be careful with tagging people who are not actually in the photo. It could be considered spam or at least annoying. !!! only tag people in photos – no matter the network (Instagram, Facebook and Twitter all allow it) – when people are actually in them. Hope these clarifications help 😎😎😎 Keep it real !
