  Yes you can create more static pages. How to create Pages > http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/

  Do note that you cannot post to pages. Pages are static and sit outside the blog structure. With wordpress, you use categories to organize posts into subjects and then you can add those categories to your navigation using a custom menu.

  Staff have provided help for those who want to structure their blog like a website. > http://en.support.wordpress.com/using-wordpress-to-create-a-website/

  What’s critical is:
  (1) a clear comprehension of the differences between pages and posts > http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/
  (2) a clear comprehension of the fact that there is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts and we cannot post to more than that one page. But we can create the appearance that we have posted to more than one page.

  We organize our posts by assigning Categories to them. When we publish a post it automatically appears on the running page for posts and also on the Categories pages and Archives pages. Note: There must be one published post in each Category in order for there to be anything to display.

  A custom menu allows you to display Categories in tabs along the horizontal navigation where normally only Pages tabs are displayed. If you wish you can also include Pages and custom links in your custom menu as well.

  Something wrong with timethief.

  At default all the pages are shown as tabs over the header of your blogs. You’ve only one page, about, listed above header and Home page as default. You can create a custom menu and add this to place where you’re thinking. Read http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-menu/

  @wpgaurav
  Not to worry. You are doing a fine job answering support questions and we all get by with a little help from our friends. :) I posted both methods because over the long term I think most bloggers will prefer a custom menu to a conventional page menu.

  Hi timethief. Yesterday was very bad day for me and I couldn’t concentrate any of forums questions. All comments I posted yesterday, were almost wrong.
