It looks like you deleted the “Hello world” post that comes with a new blog. You have not posted anything yet. Nor have you made any pages.

Have you emptied your site?

There is only one page that we can post to in any blog and we cannot prevent any posts we publish from appearing on that one page. By default it’s the front page of the blog that all posts appear on.

The 404 (page not found) error message on the front page of your blog appeared because you deleted the placeholder Hello World post. http://en.support.wordpress.com/not-found/ As soon as you publish a post, not a page it will disappear. http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/

1. Provided you actually mean posts and not these two static Pages (1st page, 2nd page) go here to find them > Dashboard > Posts > All Posts
When Posts are not private and the blogger has not set up a static front page they appear on the front page of the blog immediately after publication.

2. No there is no complete step by step video tutorial for WordPress.com. See this step by step tutorial http://learn.wordpress.com
