Using a loading phase increases your intra-muscular stores quicker and you intake less per month. ie 5 g / day for 5 days followed by 1g / day for the rest of the month on-cycle. Compared to 5g / day for 30 days.
Again consult the article re: on/off phases. If you just take 5g / day without cycling your body won't produce its own creatine. If you cycle in on a month-to-month basis it results in higher P-CR content even in the off phase but production returns to normal in 4 weeks.
