What is a WordPress Page

A WordPress Page is a type of content designed to showcase static, timeless information on your website. Unlike blog posts, which are typically organized by date and category, pages are meant for content that doesn’t change frequently and isn’t part of a chronological feed.

Common examples of WordPress Pages include:

  • Home
  • Services
  • About
  • Contact Us
  • Terms of Service
