WordPress started out to be ‘the thing’ for blogs. There’s also Blogger from Google.
But you can build a Website with WordPress, so in a way you’re creating both a blog and a website at the same time, because once you install and set up the WordPress platform, you can set it so that you have one main homepage designated as the static home page.
You can design the site with a theme that has a static home page, two or three columns with header and footer and your visitors won’t even know if they’re on a WordPress powered site or a static website.
In my opinion, if you’re new to online marketing and you’re not sure about a blog vs. website, use WordPress.
If you’re serious about online marketing, you want something that’s going to present well, look professional and if you’re looking for a static website format, you can still use WordPress to do that.
As far as cost, they're the same, because if you're serious about your business, you'll register a domain name and purchase a hosting package, then install and set up a WordPress "website."
