You were both very fast in responding, i was just very slow in understanding.

You don't see the effect till you have about five posts, but trust us.

Page-based websites are near-invisible to search engines and that's not what you want.

I see you set the blog to open on the About page and deleted it. You'll be better off with a site that opens on the blog posts page, just in terms of visibility and interest.

Thanks for the help and patience..

I have tried it but it is not working..

Maybe i am doing something wrong, do i add a post or a page? i have tried both but they are not working..

when i add a post, the WordPress Editor automatically adds either a slug for or the date to the end of the URL, which means that the URL http://www.calendarforhope.wordpress.com remains unused. and shows up as page not foud.

i know i am doing something wrong, but there has to be something to allow me to edit that page..
