Linking to other pages

maybe I am over thinking it, but I have a site that is information heavy, one page has a ton of articles on them. I am thinking of breaking in into five or six articles. What’s the best way to do this?

To give you an example. let’s say someone clicks on the articles button in the nav menu. They go to that page, then on that page I will have the five links they click on article one, then they see article one. Very simple.

What’s the best way to do this in wordpress? Just make them pages and link to them? If so, how?

am I tripping or over thinking it?

Thank you.`

Thank you, going to try it.

you can create posts for each articles
then create subcategories
then assign appropriate posts to a subcategory

for example

home
sports
–> boxing
------> boxing article 1
------> boxing article 2
–> tennis
------> tennis article 1
------> tennis article 2
------> tennis article 3
politics
… and so on

something like that

or should I just make each one a post and link to it?
