Posts are articles or updates that appear in reverse chronological order (newest first) on your blog page.

Examples of posts:

• Blog articles
• News updates
• Tutorials
• Guides
• Announcements

Posts are meant for content that keeps getting added over time.

Posts have features like:

• Categories
• Tags
• Author name
• Publish date
• RSS feed inclusion
• Show up in blog lists
• Can allow comments

Posts are perfect for any type of content that you update frequently.

Pages are static content that normally doesn’t change often and does not show publish dates or authors.

Examples of pages:

• Home
• About Us
• Services
• Contact Page
• Privacy Policy
• Terms & Conditions

Characteristics of pages:

• No categories or tags
• No author or publish date displayed
• Used for important or permanent content
• Not included in blog feed
• Usually added to the main navigation menu

Pages help structure your website and create a proper navigation flow.

Use posts when you want:

• Blog articles
• Tips & tutorials
• News & updates
• Content that changes often
• Content that needs categories/tags
• Users to comment on articles

Posts help increase SEO traffic because blogs are updated regularly.

Use pages for content that stays mostly the same:

• Homepage
• About Page
• Services Page
• Contact Page
• Policies (Privacy, Terms)
• Landing pages

Pages are essential for website structure and navigation.

You can convert:

• Posts → Pages
• Pages → Posts

Using plugins like:

• Post Type Switcher

This is useful when you accidentally create content in the wrong place.

• Posts → better for SEO because they update frequently and target keywords
• Pages → important for static SEO like services, business info, etc.

A healthy website uses both effectively.
