  A post has a content which has (normally) chronologically important content.
  Contents of a page are almost fixed and are rarely changed.

  A website is a bunch of pages and there display is controlled by using menus and widgets.

  A blog is a bunch or chronically ordered posts the fresh one at the top.

  To change the blog to a website,

  If you want to use the same post contents, you may copy them and then create new pages.

  Using menu, you can arrange and control their display on your site.

  I hope this helps.

  Every theme has a detailed theme description page and like this one at https://wordpress.com/theme/twentysixteen and that’s where set up instructions for it and the live demo site link is found.

  A blog is a website. The difference between blog and website is simply structure and semantics.

  A blog is a post based website designed for interactive communication. As the posts are frequently updated and appear on the front page of the site it’s very attractive to search engines.

  What most people call a website is merely a page based site that functions as a one-way noticeboard. As the structure is page based and as pages are for static content that rarely changes, and as pages do not have RSS feeds, and as others do not backlink to pages, it is not as attractive to search engines as a post based blog structured site is.

  Any WordPress blog can be restructured from being post based to being page based – no upgrade required. For greater clarity read >
