How do you set a static home page?  It’s very easy.  You’re first going to want to create a new page and title it ‘Home’.  This will be the page that appears when you type in your domain.  On this page you’re going to want to have a introduction to what you’re site is and put anything else here you want your readers to immediately know.

Once you have created this page go into your WordPress dashboard.  Once you’re there look at the ‘Settings’ tab on the left and click on the down arrow to drop the list of options down.  Click on ‘Reading’ and select the ‘Static Page’ option and set it to your ‘Home’ page.

Static Home Page Settings

You now have a static home page!  When you do this you’ll also want to have a place for all your posts to go.  We suggest doing something similar to what we have done and create a Latest Updates page that will host them.
