Creating a home page and blog page for your WordPress site

By default WordPress displays your blog posts on your home page. If you’d prefer your blog posts to be displayed on a page called “blog” and to display a “welcome” page on your home page instead here’s how you do it.

1) Create a page with the title “Home”, press save/publish
2) Create a page with the title “Blog”,press save/publish
3) Go to options/settings
4) Click “reading” in the submenu bar
5) Under “Front Page displays”:

a) Click “a static page”
b) Make your front page “Home”
c) Make your blog page “Blog”

6) Save

You’re done! You know have a page named “Blog” which displays your recent blog posts and a page named “Home” which you write whatever you’d like on. When your website is visited the “Home” page will be displayed and the blog page will be displayed when they click on “blog” in your menu bar
