BLOG ROLL

As said earlier, this is the page where you may post contents continuously. So the last entry of posting is visible first to the visitor.

The previous entries keep on going down in chronological order.

It allows you to enter fresh ideas to your site. It also makes the visitors understand your last activity in the site. If you keep on adding new contents (Date is shown), they understand that you are active in the site. This increases your credibility.

As already said, you may allow your Home Page to remain as Blog Roll by default or may designate another page as Blog Roll.
