Should publish as page or blog posts on Wordpress ?

[Scaria]

We have a technical blog website and our primary income is from blog.

Recently we developed a open source free tool and but we are not sure if we need to publish it as wordpress page or as normal blog post. We don't look for an income from these tools. Later we will publish this tool in github. Also we have plan to develop many tools (small open source software) like this.

So please advise we should place as

Page

mywebsite/tool1

mywebsite/tool2

or

Normal blog posts

mywebsite/toolcategory/tool1

mywebsite/toolcategory/tool2

Thanks!!!

I guess it depends how it is going to be defined in your navigation. If you are going to have a section of your site dedicated to it, I would publish it as a page. If it is not going to be accessible from a menu, I would make it a blog post.

Thanks for the reply.

My plan is to place in MENU. Can I create as page and place in menu ?

Do this have any issues ? Do google treat page and blog post with different importance ?

Thanks !!1

The navigation doesn't have so much to do with it being a page or a post. You can place any page in the menu by going to Appearance -> Menus and dragging and dropping.

Google does not look at pages vs posts differently - it's generally a content-type decision, not so much an SEO decision.
