How was the weekend? Mine was longer than anticipated so forgive me for my absence but here I am.
For us beginners this is one of the topics that we must understand as far as blogging is concerned. Blogging is all about posts, the more you post the livelier is your blog. Do I need a page then? No!
Yes, you do not need a single page if all you need is to blog but I should warn you you might need some other things that will require at least one page. If you want us to take your content seriously we need to know who you are the same goes with making connections with other bloggers, it is not a law but it is recommended.
Posts
This one you are reading is a post, posts are usually arranged with the latest on top which is the default setting. You can decide to make a post sticky so that it remains as the top most. With posts we can add tags, put them in categories and use widgets as our imaginations lead us.
Pages
This is a page. Pages are static and are not arranged like posts, each page will have its own link.
Scenario I: I want to have a static page as my front page but where can I see my posts?
Now this is what happened, I changed my front page setting in customize to static page and after clicking Save & Publish swoosh….my posts disappeared. If you intend to have a static page and you want to see you posts also this is one of the ways you can do it.
Create a page which will be your homepage with the content you wish to have and then create another page you can name it blog or other name. Do not write anything or add any content in this blog page, look for page attributes on your right and choose blog as template
Done. Publish the page and add it to the menu if your theme did not add it automatically. If you posted anything before you can see your posts in your new blog page.

I found your blog after you liked one of my posts (thank you btw). I’m a bit frustrated by the posts I’ve read – your advice is useful, but your writing style is choppy, hard to follow, and screams “English isn’t my first language.” Do you intend to have such a choppy unnatural style? Or do you need an editor? Because the content is good but hard to read because of the style.

Do I need an editor? Nope!
This is an area I need to improve and not let someone who does it better do it.
Thank you for your input

I wasn’t offering myself for a job opportunity, you know. But with any writing, both fictional and non-fiction – there’s a certain amount of professional craft involved, that includes following rules of grammar and spelling, and subtler rules of diction. If you want your posts to be read – make them readable. The only way to learn is to have someone help you learn. You can’t do it by yourself by guessing.

Your comment really helped me, It is true I do not need an editor but you made me realize I need to up my game.
Please take time to read my other posts and my bio, the main purpose of this blog is for me to learn and share that experience. This is part of that journey and I believe after several months I will look back and be able to measure my progress.
Thank you again!
