Some content may be better suited for a static page, whether it's because you don't want the content to get \"buried\" in the ever-changing display of posts, or because the content is of general use and interest, such as a page describing the site's creator.<\/p>\n

Creating Pages<\/h3>\n

You can create a page by logging in to the WordPress Admin Panel and clicking on \"Pages\" then \"Add New\".<\/p>\n \t\t
