A business website or a business blog? Which one is best for a small business? I would suggest a combination of both will do more good than having a single one. Blogs have already proved as a successful marketing tool for business concerns. Blog is an effective tool for staying in touch with your customers and interacting with them. Many top businesses are having their own website/blog on Internet.
Than making a separate entity, a blog can be incorporated easily in to your business website. While the business website gives a static view of company profile, services, etc, a blog can help customers in knowing the new products, reviews, company news – any single news that the company wants, the customers should know.

2. Cheap maintenance cost
A business blog is a low-cost alternative to having a web presence. Once the site on line, you can maintain the website with out depending anyone.
3. Updating the site
