In the From:
box enter only a forward slash - "/". In the To: box
enter the exact page name - in our case it was "/p/home-page.html".
All Blogger static pages have a /p in front of the URL. You can see that the
html name was the page title we used, so if you used something else for your
title like 'Main Page' then the html would be /p/main-page.html.
Go ahead and press the little 'Save' text link and then the 'Save changes' button highlighted in the image above. What's now going to happen is that your main URL will redirect to the static page you've created. Go ahead and try to access your blog now - you should go directly to the new static page from the main URL.
All is good, right?? Well, not quite. If you want to enable visible tabs for Pages on your template the problem is going to be that you'll have two menu items called 'Home' and 'Home Page' on the tab bar both redirecting to your static page. However, if you don't care to add Pages as tabs (they're not enabled by default) - you can stop at this point. Your static home page is ready to go!
