Blog? Website? What's the difference?

Many people in the modern day are confused about the differences between a blog and a website.
Web log is the formal name for a blog. Therefore a blog is a type of website and a website is just a general term.
There are a few technical differences to blogs and websites, in the way they are presented to the readers.
In my opinion blogs are rather informal compared to websites. For example, the language they use is much less complicated. This might be because the blogger is trying to broaden their audience around the world through using simpler language.
In a blog the major topics can change and blogs often cover several articles as they are updated often.
Unlike blogs, the major content of a website often remains the same, although the creator of the website can add other pages to the website to increase the content, therefore developing their website further.
I found this quote on a blog-
'Website is a Web page which provides any Service (Like Facebook) and a Blog is a Web page which gives Information and Articles on daily basis (Like Youtube, Twitter ) "
