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

  First you need to understand the differences between pages and posts.

  Then you need to understand that we organize our posts by use of categories. There is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts and we cannot post to more than that one page. However, we can create the appearance that we have done that by setting up a custom menu and displaying Categories in tabs along the horizontal navigation menu.

  So I guess if you want to recreate the website feel through pages, you have to manually link to each other. So we could essentially build a site apart from the blog area. Good to know.

  <blockquote. So I guess if you want to recreate the website feel through pages, you have to manually link to each other.

  No not really. In a blog static pages sit outside the blog structure. A WordPress blog can either be structured as a page based website or its conventional post based structure can be retained. That’s why understanding the the differences between posts and pages is key to decision making when setting up your WordPress.com blog.

  Another key consideration is the SEO impact of creating a page based structure either with a static front page or without one. Please see here for more information > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/05/12/better-blogging-at-wordpress-com-pages-and-posts/

  The way we restructure is by creating a custom menu. http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/
