Difference between blogger and influencer?

There is no difference between bloggers and influencers. The blogger is an influencer who influences the buying decisions of his readers through his blog.

the influencer is anyone who has the power to influence senior purchasing decisions due to his authority, competence, knowledge 

the blogger is a sub-category of influencers

bloggers are influencers because they can influence a person’s purchase decision

I’ll give you an example we all ended up on the tutorials of the most famous tech blogger in Italy, Aranzulla,

Aranzulla after years of work has gained enormous authority on the web and we all know that we can count on the advice given to us by his articles

If tomorrow Aranzulla were to change one of the software that he recommends in his articles, this would most likely lead many people to change software

this is a simple example of influence and you can see how Aranzulla who is a tech blogger can in this way be an influencer in some way
