# Homepage

## Homepage Displays

You can choose what’s displayed on the homepage of your site. It can be posts in reverse chronological order (classic blog), or a fixed/static page. To set a static homepage, you first need to create two Pages. One will become the homepage, and the other will be where your posts are displayed.

Navigate to **Settings > Reading > Homepage displays** and choose either option.
