A friend of mine recently asked me about creating a static homepage so that his Wordpress site had a main page that worked more like a static website. I think he was able to get it all set up and functioning properly, but at the time I didn’t have a web page to direct him to that had comprehensive instructions on setting it all up.

Thanks to the Blogging Experiment, we now have a step-by-step guide on using Wordpress as a static home page.

FYI for Blogivists: While this can be done on our system, you cannot edit the code in your navigation area. The above method is designed for self-hosted Wordpress blogs.
