I have found two websites; one being a blog about this topic, and one being a website. To make my topic slightly easier, I chose to look at a particular theme of rugby, which was a rugby player and I defined this even more by looking at one rugby player who plays for Wales, Gavin Henson.
Looking closelty at the two websites I found similarities and differences between the both.
On the website of Gavin Henson it was more official, there were heading and titles and main headings all across the home page, which indicated that by the layout it was an official website. There was also alot more information on this page than the 'blog' website I found. Also the layout seemed more professional which indicated to me that it was not a blog.
Check it out yourself, this was the wesbite I found -

On the blog that I found, it was a lot easier to see that it was a blog as it was very different to the offical website of Gavin Henson.
On this page, you were able to leave comments and your own opinions onto the web page.
There were 'recent posts' and 'categories' and also dates and times of when things were posted onto the website, to show that this was a blog page.
It also showed the writers name in the blogs and was more of a type of diary compared to the website page.
There were plenty of images and also a 'search' engine which indicated to me that this definitely was a blog.
Here is the blog page I found, look for yourself -

So these are the differences between blogs and websites and how you can tell if it's a blog or a website! These are the reasons to which I made my assumptions!
