Difference between Posts and Pages
Posts
  • built-in commenting feature that allows users to comment on a particular topic
  • organize your posts based on categories and tags.
  • Posts are content entries listed in reverse chronological order on your blog’s home page. Due to their reverse chronological order, your posts are meant to be timely
  • you can share your posts in social media networks like Twitter, Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn etc.
  • Because WordPress posts are published with time and date in mind, they are syndicated through the RSS feeds. This allows your readers to be notified of the most recent post update via RSS feeds.
Pages
  • Pages are meant to be static
  • pages are timeless entities(Because there is no time and date tied to pages)
  • they are not included in your RSS feeds by default.
