  Hi,
  I found this on ‘The Daily Post’…

  A “Best of” page: How about choosing your strongest posts and showcasing them in a designated page? This way, new readers can quickly find some of your past standouts, which is especially useful if you’ve been blogging for a while…

  But I can’t find out how to create a page to show the posts that receive the most views or least views, so that I can create a ‘best of’ page.

  Can someone help me please?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Here’s how to create a Page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/
  Here’s is where you find you stats page https://wordpress.com/my-stats/
  Go to the Top Posts and Pages module to find the titles and links to the relevant posts and pages.

  there are also a couple of widgets that do what you suggest– “Top Posts and Pages” and “Top Rated” It’s not exactly the same as having a page, but it is a way to highlight your most popular stuff and get more clicks.

  I wouldn’t make a post or page out of it. I’d put it in a text widget, which I have done, or an Alert or Sticky Post.

  Cool idea, I’ll give the text widget thing a go and see how that works for me. Thanks @raincoaster.
