Differences between Blog Posts and Articles
Blog Post Article
Then something happened, and over the past couple of years, the lines started blurring.
Client confusion
Uneducated clients who don’t really know these two forms have been busy muddying up the conversation about them for years. That’s made it hard for writers to define writing projects and bid them appropriately. There are plenty of clients out there who call the 300-word quickie posts they want ‘articles,’ but still want to pay $5 for them. There are also many clients who’d like you to write 1,000-word blog posts with two interviews and a research stat, but they’d like to pay $20 because “it’s a blog post.” Your job as a freelance writer is to cut through the bull and get to what the assignment really is — then, talk about what that gig should really pay.
