is it better to use pages or posts

Hi.

Just my opinion - but you should use pages for your pillar articles (your sales pages etc), and posts for your articles that talk around your niche - and point people back to your main pillar pages. Your pillar pages would normally be in your menus too.

In terms of search engines - it makes no difference at all. A page and a post are seen as exactly the same - and indexed and served up in the SERPS exactly the same.

Cheers, Mark

I think it depends on what your site is about, for my fishing site I choose to make everything all pages because my newsletter readers wanted easy access to previous articles without a lot of searching through a blog roll. On the newsletter page there is 48 links to the articles and I add 1 article a week which I place at the top making it easy for my readers. I have another site where it works as a blog roll and probably would not work as a page site. Word press is so easy I suggest building your site both ways and see what works best for you.

Depends. Posts are good for blogrolls. Pages are good to build menus.
