Create a static page first and then go here > Dashboard > Reading

I would like to know how to display as a static page though. Not sure if I will use it because what I wanted to use it for isn't allowed anyway.

By default, the homepage displays your latest posts (no matter what the theme). It can be made to display a static page instead (such as your About page), but do you think a visitor, especially a returning visitor, would be more interested in seeing your About page instead of your latest posts?

I have a question. I just recently started this blog: http://itoldyouiwassick.wordpress.com/ and I'm wondering why when I click on this link, my latest blog entry pops up but not a "landing page" such as my Home or About page. Is it just the theme I'm using?

Thank you!

Jaime
