Blog Site? or Blogsite?

The answer depends on what you mean.

Of course, there is no Official Answer, but to me, blog site and blogsite have different meanings.  Thus, which term you use depends on what you really mean.

Here are the conventions I follow.

  • A blog site is the location of a weblog.
  • A blogsite is a weblog application that integrates multiple content channels (i.e., weblogs, syndicated feeds, private forums, FAQs, etc.) to address specific business requirements.

Since a blogsite is a type of application, there are many possible types of blogsites.  Blogsite Gold™ and Blogsite Platinum™ are brand names for blogsite applications for enhancing Internet visibility and brand impressions.
