Linking pages to make browsing easy
It’s most important that all your pages must be visible to your visitors. But it’s not advisable to add all the content to one page, here comes the role of Linking pages to each other. You need to link them to each other. You can make page linking in WordPress by just adding the menu section. You can add the important post links at top and others at the bottom.
You can also add some links manually, The links might be internal or external.
Internal link means the links to the pages from your own website. All the menu links are usually internal links.
External links are the links to the pages which are not from the same website. That means we can add the links from popular websites like, WordPress,. Facebook, Google etc.
All your site is now ready and you have created your own basic website. We will disscuss about improving this basic site to the professional site in future articles.

Web Page content
Page content is the content which you are going to show to your visitors. This might be the text, images or forms to collect data.
For adding content to the webpage you can use your blogging or CMS tool. CMS stands for Content Management System. There are many CMS softwares available for free use, like WordPress, Drupal, Magento, PrestaShop.
Some of the CMS are blogging tools and some of them can be used for e-commerce.
You should choose the CMS according to your requirement. If you only want to post some textual information and images you can use the blogging tools, and if you are going to develop a e-commerce (the product/sales/purchase) site then you may choose e-commerce tools design specially for E-commerce.
Once you decided the CMS tool it’s easy for you to create pages with your content. You just need to install them on your server. May be you can start with installation of wordpress
