What is a Page? And how do I add one?

Pages are for content such as” Home,” “Products,” “About Me,” “Testimonials,” etc. etc. Pages are used to present information about your company. You can add as many pages as you like, and keep all of your information organized neatly! You can add sidebars, contact forms, add to parent pages, and so many other things. Your San Diego business home page is where you can import your customized Logo as well!

Pages differ from Posts because Pages are not frequently updated. Pages are considered more static which usually appear in alphabetical order; however, most companies list them in the order they would like clients and/or potential clients to see first. Keep in mind that pages do not appear in your RSS feeds, so clients must visit those pages directly to see if any updates have been applied. Additionally, you cannot apply categories or tags to Pages. Pages are where your Web Design skills will come into play!
