What’s best? Post or page?

What do you think is the best to use when writing a novel? using post categories or pages?
I have been wondering about this for quite sometime, so I just want to know your meanings. My site is: http://mytagalogstories.wordpress.comAs the title said it’s tagalog language so please excuse me if I you visit and don’t understand it. but the page with the name “MGA NOBELA” is my novels.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

First off you might want to take a look at this: http://support.wordpress.com/write-a-book/ .
Using pages for your content has some major drawbacks you should be aware of:
1. Pages will show up lower in search engine results because search engines place lower emphasis on pages. Pages are meant for static content. Chapters of a novel would certainly qualify as “static” 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.
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.

But sorry I’ll stick to my settings, first following that link intructions is to much work, next page is easer to organized the way I want it to appear. In post, it’s always the latest who move to the top, I can see a way to make it lower down
