  Can I archive older posts? If so, how? And will it save space on my Home page?

  Thanks,
  Michael.

  In WordPress.com blogs when we publish a post it aotomatically appears on the Archives pages as well as on the Tags and Categories pages we assigned to the post. We do nothing. the software does it for us.

  To reduce the number of posts appearing on your front page so your blog loads quickly you change the number here > Settings > Reading
  Blog pages show at most__posts

  Or on Twenty Eleven and Twenty Ten you can leave infinite scrolling enabled. Infinite Scroll is now an option when footer widgets are present. You can find the option under Settings → Reading when two conditions are met:
  1. You are using a theme that supports infinite scroll
  2. You have added footer widgets https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/disable-infinite-scroll-with-custom-css?replies=20#post-817131
