  Hello.
  I am creating a website with a page that needs to stay static for the rest of the week. This static page explains when the website will be unveiled.
  As I add and customize new pages, these new pages change the design and domain of the static page.
  How can I keep the static page running as our main page (without changing its design or domain), while adding new pages and changing their design?

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

  Here is how to set up a static front page:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/

  Then make a custom menu so that it shows only the static front page in navigation:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

  Make your other pages, but leave them out of your custom menu until you are ready to unveil your site.
