What is the difference between an article and a blog post?

[Zak1357]

Hi to my fellow copywriters,

From what I understood after researching a bit for their difference, articles are more formal while blogs are more casual.

But I'm not sure if articles in content writing have the same structure as you would have when making a thesis, for example. How formal should an article be?

And how should an article be structured in content writing, compared to a blog post?

Any answers would be appreciated

Thanks guys!

I'd say the structure of the content depends on the publication. For example, an article for the Onion is more satirical but an article for the Wall Street journal is usually more formal, and a blog post should reflect the personality of the individual blogger.
