Also, remember that in WordPress, you can assign a PAGE to be the BLOG or NEWS page and under General > Reading and you can assign the home page to be a PAGE your have entitled “HOME.”
That way, you then have your HOME page and your NEWS page, where your Posts archive is generated and live on the PAGE called “News”
So, just go to Settings > Reading and change the target home page to a page called HOME and the target blog page to a page called NEWS. Set your navigation menu accordingly and you’ll have a HOME page and a NEWS page.
Some people simply call the Posts archives page, “BLOG.” But, it depends on what you decided to convey to your audience. Are your posts BLOG posts or are they NEWS posts – it’s up to you. Some people don’t like the term “BLOG” and don’t want to feel like they have to be caught in a cycle of blogging for blogging’s sake, so they simply call that page NEWS and whatever POSTS live under the NEWS tab are just what they are – NEWS posts and not BLOG posts.
