To start growing your web design skills on WordPress, it is fundamentally important to differentiate between pages and posts.

PAGES + POSTS = CONTENT TYPES

What are pages?

• Pages are static, timeless content that doesn’t change frequently.

What are examples of pages?

• Home, services, about, and contact page

What are posts?

• Posts are dynamic, regularly updated content entries displayed in reverse chronological order.

What are examples of posts?

• News articles, movie reviews, the latest recipes in a cooking blog

The main differences between pages and posts in WordPress

• Pages are not shown in reverse chronological order as Posts.
• A page can be the parent or child of another, creating page structure, while blogs can’t.
• Posts use categories and tags to be placed into a hierarchical order.
