In reply to: Blog Page IssueSet the page you want as the home page as the static page in the reading settings under general setting in the admin.
As for the blog page, either create a custom page template for it with a custom query. Or add a menu link to the navigation that just redirects people to the default category for your site and make sure all your posts are listed under the category.

In reply to: Whats best, static home page or blog????The more the content changes on the home page, the more often it will be indexed. So a blog is probably better from that point of view. But if the text on the static page has amazing content more people may link to it from their blogs or site. So it really depends on what’s best for your site and more importantly the users.

If you create a custom widget area you can then add the banner img code to a text widget in the admin.

In reply to: Do Plugins & Widgets Slow WP Down?Every bit of code that is added to a site will slow it down to some degree. Some plugins have large overheads, others are negligible.
Most can be optimised, but it depends on the way you have your site setup and what you’re using the plugin for.
Adding a cache to the site is the quickest route, for speeding things up.
