What defines a “New” article is when I write and publish an article to my website. I would like to be able to denote that it IS a new article, unread by anyone but myself as i wrote it.

I guess there Are a few things I do not understand… I am new to WP, I like what i have discovered so far but am mystified by some stuff also…
for example, how do I make a Separate page for my Download/thank you page that everyone cannot see… If I post it as private that hides it forever, if I make it public it appears in plain site for all to see and download from… its Got me puzzled, and because it does I can’t tell PayPal where to send my customers to, to get the product they just bought… got any ideas on this????

Let me see if I can make this any more clear.
I use WP for my website. I write articles and publish them on the website.
I cannot find where WP stores my articles.
