  Any WordPress blog can be restructured from being post based to being page based – no upgrade required. For greater clarity read > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2013/07/25/create-a-wordpress-website-step-by-step/
  Then see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/using-wordpress-to-create-a-website/

  The only themes we can use on free hosted WordPress.com blogs are found here http://wordpress.com/themes/

  On one hand, none of the characteristic “blog” features like categories, tags, authors, dates, etc. can be removed from a free hosted WordPress.com blog, without purchasing an annually renewable custom design upgrade and doing the required CSS editing.

  On the other hand, one can edit a WordPress.org theme free of charge. Read the comparison > WordPress.com and WordPress.org: The Differences http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
