Basically I want to set up a static page for my blog's home page and then "move" my blog to the /blog/ directory without messing up the permalink structure for articles like:
http://mydomainname.com/article/
instead of:
http://mydomainname.com/blog/article/
This is an example blog that is doing pretty much the same thing I'm looking to do.
http://notaproblog.com/
Thoughts?
Setting -> Reading in your admin panel.

But how would I do it so that the /blog/ URL that I create looks the same as my homepage now though?
I don't want just a list of recent posts. I like the way it is now for my blog I just want a new homepage.
I feel like that changes things as I was aware of the setting > reading option in my admin panel by just setting a page as the home page...
Ideas?
Did you following the instruction in the doc I linked?
If you did then you would have a front page using a template that you've set and a /blog/ page exactly the same as what you had before.

To clarify:
Step 1: I just create one page as "Home"
On this page I add the content I want to it like my newsletter sign up form etc. a video w/e
Step 2: I create a second page called "Blog" and put NOTHING in it.
This page then should display my blog the way it is now?
Is that right?
