  Your Home page is your posts page which is why your posts appear on your Home page.

  To change this behavior, create a new page titled say Blog. Go to your Dashboard > Settings > Reading screen. You will see Front page displays at the top. Change the selection to “A static page (select below) “. Select a page for Front page: and the Blog for Posts page. Don;t forget to hit Save Changes button at the end of the screen.

  Now your posts will appear on the Blog ( or whatever name you gave it) page. Instead of Home page, whatever page you chose for Front page: will be your landing page.

  Please let me know if this is not clear.

  Hi there,

  just copy everything from the page, start a new blog post and copy it there. When you are sure that everything works, you can remove the page.

  I am not sure if there’s way to ‘convert’ page to post.
