This is usually due to the homepage being set to list your posts. This is the default configuration for all WordPress sites since WordPress is a blogging platform first and a CMS through proper configuration.
You can fix this by setting a static homepage rather than showing all your posts. Take a look in the reading settings to change your front page to be static and your posts page to live somewhere else.
From the Codex:
Use this setting to determine if your posts or a “static” Page
displays as your blog’s front (main) page. This setting displays only
if you have one or more Pages defined. Please note: static front page
plugins and other ‘posts display’ control/restriction plugins may
affect how these features work!
