Free to use and endlessly customizable with free and premium themes created by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/wordpress\/wordpress-hosting\">WordPress<\/a> developers, WordPress allows new users and experienced developers alike to create websites to meet all kinds of specialized needs. Much of the flexibility and customization available to WordPress users come from modifying settings from the site dashboard  within the WordPress Admin, including settings for establishing the look and behavior of your site\u2019s homepage content. Read more to learn how to edit the homepage in WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Why Set and Edit Your WordPress Homepage?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>The biggest reason why you would want to set and edit your homepage is because you don&#8217;t want your blog as the primary section of your website. WordPress, at its core, is a blogging platform so your blog shows up by default after installing WordPress. You may want to set and edit your homepage if you have any of the following goals:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Increase leads<\/li><li>Generate more revenue<\/li><li>Get more email subscribers<\/li><li>Have a primary focus on your services<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p>Now that we\u2019ve covered why you would want to set and edit your WordPress homepage, let\u2019s discuss how to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Managing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/blog\/a-guide-to-wordpress-settings\/\">WordPress Settings<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Along with the customization options that come with WordPress theme settings, you can also change the look and functionality of any WordPress site by adjusting its extensive array of built-in settings and layout options. General settings for editing global aspects of the WordPress site can be controlled from the Settings tab in the site\u2019s Admin dashboard. This allows users \u2013 even those with no WordPress development or coding experience \u2013 to set custom preferences for a function, such as managing comments, custom permalinks, and how content is created and displayed. When a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/blog\/guide-to-wordpress-plugins\/\">WordPress plugin<\/a> is installed, its settings can also be managed from the Settings tab. And although it may not be readily apparent, the Settings panel can also be used to manage other aspects of the site, including setting a custom homepage of your choice.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Customizing WordPress Homepage Settings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Although it is used to create websites of all kinds today, WordPress was originally conceived as a tool for bloggers \u2013 and some of its functionality still reflects that intent. Most WordPress themes for general use are designed to showcase the site\u2019s blog posts as the front, or home, page. But not all users choose to have a blog, and for many, it is more important to present other kinds of content to visitors on the homepage. Making the switch from a blog page to a static homepage of another kind can be done using your site\u2019s Reading Settings and the Pages editor.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Designate a New Static Homepage<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>To change the site\u2019s WordPress homepage settings, you\u2019ll need to designate a page as the desired homepage, which will be displayed as a static or unchanging page whenever your site opens. &nbsp;To do this, select Pages&gt;Add New from the dashboard. Name the new page \u201cHome,\u201d or any name you choose and add the content you want to display on the homepage. When it looks just right, Publish the page.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n<p>If you already have a page with existing content that you\u2019d like to designate as the homepage, you can edit that page to rename it \u201cHome,\u201d and republish it, or simply continue to use its current name.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Create a Blog Post Page<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Since blog posts will not be displayed by default as the front page of the site, they\u2019ll need a place to appear as well. To designate a placeholder page for blog posts, create another new page from the Pages tab and give it a name that describes your blog content, such as \u201cBlog,\u201d \u201cPosts,\u201d or \u201cArticles.\u201d &nbsp;There is no need to add content to this page because only the title is relevant. Publish this page too, even though it\u2019s blank.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Customize the Reading Settings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve created these two pages and published them, navigate back to the Admin Settings panel and select settings for Reading. Under \u201cFront Page Displays,\u201d settings options, select \u201cA Static Page.\u201d Dropdown menus allow you to select from the available pages for both the Front Page and the Posts Page. For the Front Page display, select the name of the page you want to use as a homepage \u2013 either the new \u201cHome,\u201d page you created or another of your choice. For the Posts page, select the blog post page you just created, or simply leave it blank if your site doesn\u2019t have a blog. Then click Save Changes. The new homepage should appear as a static front page and in your site navigational menus.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Customize the Permalinks<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>By default, WordPress displays links to a site\u2019s pages as a series of numbers and letters, but creating custom permalinks can help your site\u2019s searchability and ensure that your homepage is clearly designated as such. From the Admin dashboard, navigate to Permalink Settings. Under Common Settings, choose \u201cPost Name,\u201d so that the name of every page or post appears in its unique <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/blog\/what-is-a-url\/\">URL<\/a>. Then click Save Changes.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Adjust the Menus<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>It is also important to make sure the site\u2019s menus correctly display the new front page and blog page changes. &nbsp;From Settings, select Appearance&gt;Menus. Select \u201cCreate a New Menu,\u201d from the available options, which can vary by theme. From all available pages, select the ones that should display in the site\u2019s menus, including the new homepage and the blog or post page that were just created. Click Save Menu to update menu settings to reflect the new structure.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Working with WordPress Themes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Some themes, both free and premium, don\u2019t allow the option to override the theme\u2019s core settings to create a static homepage that is different from the post page. Themes that are specifically designed for blogging or other specific purposes like the magazine WordPress theme may not include the Front Page Display settings in the Reading tab. To be sure that a theme includes the option for setting a custom homepage, check the theme\u2019s list of included features. It is also possible to force this change by creating a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/blog\/working-with-child-themes-in-wordpress\/\">child theme<\/a> from your site\u2019s existing \u201cparent\u201d theme, then making alterations on the code level.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Although <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/wordpress\">WordPress hosting<\/a> was designed to make online publishing a reality for everyone, it can power sites ranging from small personal blogs to large e-commerce concerns thanks to its versatility and flexibility. The WordPress Settings panel on your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/blog\/wordpress-dashboard-walkthrough\/\">WordPress Admin dashboard<\/a> offers both new and experienced users an array of options for customizing a site\u2019s appearance and functions, including setting the homepage that reflects your brand and the goals of your WordPress site.<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WordPress is the world\u2019s leading content management system and site builder, powering about a third of the world\u2019s personal and business websites.
