The terminology
There are basically two different types of ‘pages’ that can be added into a Wordpress website:
A Page
This is a page of content that stays consistent in your menu structure. The Pages are permanent items that refer to core informational pages for your business such as Home, Services, Products, About Us and Contact Us.
A Post
A Post is a type of page that falls into a predefined category such as News, Upcoming Events, Case Studies etc. A Post is used when the information on that page has more to do with a specific date or event. So you could have a news item for November 2009 or a case study for a specific client. You can have multiple posts under a category. The posts will automatically be archived by Wordpress by month. Posts are nice to use when updating your site with the latest information or tips regarding your industry.
A Category
A Category is a way to group related posts together. So you could create a category for news, case studies etc and then add posts into them.
