Facebook Vs. Blog

AZCentral explains how a blog is a great way to get across who you are as an individual and how you shape your company. Readers will relate to your experiences, and laugh or ponder at your commentary on daily life. You can say as much as you want and control what is being posted on your personal page. Personally speaking, blogging is a better option for businesses. However, blogging is time-consuming in comparison to Facebook if you are thinking of creating content filled posts that have several photos and links to other websites. Blog readers don't leave as frequent comments as Facebook users do. Without comments, it proves that people aren't reading your content and you might want to reconsider your strategy. The depth of content in comparison to the lack of comments found in a blog means no one's interested in communicating with your posts even if they were very detailed.


Facebook offers more opportunity for interaction and developing a social identity. Because of the social attention of Facebook, status updates can initiate conversation that can draw in friends. The comments offer businesses the opportunity to connect with people and keep them coming back. Facebook can be a less intense involvement than a blog as it only takes a moment to share a quick status update, post a link or share content found on another website. Facebook will also share your content with users who have "liked" your page. Facebook has 1 billion users, but your Facebook page is competing for their attention with several other pages. Even among people who have "liked" your page, there's still plenty of competition. The same likers have also "liked"other pages and that might bring more attention on their feed to ignore whatever you have posted.  Even with their interest, you have a small window of time to engage with them. Facebook doesn't offer anything that permanently replaces blog posting.
