Pages and Posts

WHAT ARE PAGES AND POSTS

WordPress comes with two default content types called Pages and Posts. By default, WordPress shows your blog posts on the front page of your website. You can change that, and make WordPress show any page as the front-page of your website. Posts are part of a blog and appear in reverse-chronological order on your website's Home Page. Your website Home Page can also be composed of a unique landing page. Pages are meant to be static type content such as your about page, contact page, privacy policy, etc.
