Home page in WordPress

Hello All,

I started a website where I created pages and made a Home, About, Contact...etc pages. The problem is that when I go to the .com address, it doesn't go to the Home page that I expect and says something about stuff not being found.

So, I am a bit confused about this, but where should you create your Home page in WordPress. I guess it's not as a page so where do you place the content?

Thanks!

By default, WordPress shows your most recent Posts on the front page of your site. But many WordPress users want to have a static front page or splash page as the front page instead. This "static front page" look is common for those who wish to not have a "blog" look to their site, giving it a more CMS (content management system) feel.

Go to Administration -> Settings -> Reading panel.

Set 'Front page displays:' to 'a static page' and choose the first page you created above for 'Front page.' If your WordPress site will contain a blog section, set 'Posts page' to the page your created for this above. Otherwise, leave this blank.
Save changes.


Enable "Permalinks" to show the "page title" in the address, since /index.php?p=123 defeats the purpose of making a static front page.

While we are calling this a "static front page," you can change the content on that web page at any time by editing the Page.
