I'm new to internet marketing. I'm building a baseball (hitting) website and want to know if a static website or a blogsite is better. Is it your posts or your pages your trying to rank?

  • It will be difficult for you to rank with a small static site. you need a site which you will be updating with new contents, only then you will have good chances to rank fro your keywords.

    • If you start with a blog, then your work might increase as to rank to a blog you need to write original and informative posts weekly or monthly. If you are new to internet marketing then you should start with a website and after this you can start a blog as well. Of course a blog helps in connecting to your readers, but It takes lots of time until then you have to write things that appeal to the people to visit your blog and give their views. So it's better to start off with a website.

  • WordPress is your solution my friend.
  • First of all

    Typically people will try to rank post rather than pages.

    Pages are usually for stuff like , Contact me, About me, Disclaimer and all that

    Posts is for contents youd like to add to your site or blog.

    Typically you can have thousands of posts but a handful of pages.

    The difference between the two is important because some wordpress themes and widgets (sidebars and all that) navigation menu saparates pages.

    But anyways seeing the most recent google update has made me believe that a blog is definitely better ( because of the constant updates of contents!)

    • Thank you for the response. Very informative. Your response was definitely what I was getting at. So I would then assign my posts to my "categories"??
  • I actually did a small case study on this.. Site A has all content on posts. Site B has main content on pages & supporting content on posts.

    At the end of the day, both sites are doing equally well.
  • install wordpress, majority of the professionals from all over the world are using this. it can also be used for website, you just need some customization.
