By default WordPress shows a list of posts on the homepage. We need to change WordPress’ default behavior. The easiest way to accomplish this is by creating a WordPress Page (not post), insert the comparison table in it, and then list the products one-by-one manually.

Now the homepage will display the content of the WordPress Page instead of a list of posts.
This way we have setup our homepage, but it’s empty. Now we should add a comparison table and review summaries to it. Let’s start by adding the comparison table.
