    The links in the nav bar are to static pages. When you create and publish pages, they will show up in the nav bar automatically.

    This link explains the differences between pages and posts: http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ .

    Pages typically should not be used for your main content as they have some drawbacks when compared to posts:

    1. Pages will show up lower in search engine results because search engines place lower emphasis on pages. Pages are meant for static content. For some types of sites, this may actually be the best way of presenting the material though.

    2. When you publish a post, wordpress automatically “pings” all the major search engines to let them know you have published a new post so that they can index it. When you publish a page, wordpress does NOT “ping” the search engines. You will have to ping manually at a service such as pingomatic.com.

    3. Only posts show up on an RSS feed, pages do not. That means people cannot subscribe to your blog so that they are alerted when you add something new.

    4. You can assign categories and tags to posts to help the search engines properly place you in search results. Pages cannot have tags or categories as they sit outside the blog structure.

    Actually I’m wrong on this. The three tabs in the top navigation are static and declared in the underlying theme files. You cannot add tabs to that section.

    For pages, you would have to use the pages widget in the sidebar.
