So in your site the Main Menu shows your “Pages” I am guessing and your “Weblog Posts” are “Posts”

Hummerbie says
@Rick: yes that is correct and since you can chance the title of any widget you want to use you can name them any way you want.
You could name the pages “Pages” and the Blog posts “Articles”.
I liked to make it more CMS like so I went for “Main Menu”

I am deciding to create a website with minimum 5000 static pages but it takes too long please help me how i should cretate in wordpress i have my design ready
Herbert-Jan van Dinther says
@Rohit Mishra: A 5000 page website will take a log of time to build and you need to do it 1 by 1 for the best results. So it is a lenghty proccess or you have to use a tool like WPRobot
