Blog or discussion?

Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

I recently posted a blog, but now realize that maybe I should have made it a discussion instead. So let's look at the difference between a blog and a discussion.

Blog:

A blog is more of an informative article meant to cause the reader to stop and think, or possibly learn something new. There might be a little bit of interaction, but mostly just information.

Discussion:

A discussion has a slightly greater reach, but mostly a more directed audience. When you start a discussion, you select which classroom to post it in. So it's a little more focused, but reaches the proper audience.

Regardless of which one you do, both will be accessible through the search box at the top of the screen. The important thing is that if it has value to the community, get it out there!

God bless,
