 * After backing up and upgrading my site, I posted new articles, only to discover
   that on all the linked pages only the About page went to archive.
    And only one
   post appears in Recent Post link.

 * Your site seems to be fine, were you able to resolve the issue?
 * I also removed your link to the site, as some of the ads there had adult content.

 * No, the site is not fine! What I am saying is that my October post in Archives
   has only the About page and not the rest. Is this how WordPress works or am I
   missing something?

 * So, the monthly archive for October only displays the About page? Did you publish
   any posts in October? Do the other monthly archives work as expected?

 * Yes, I did. In all the… (I don’t know what they are called: Feature Article, 
   Health Quotes, Health Tips etc.). Its the only month I had posted before.

 * Or, perhaps it’s because I didn’t save before publishing. What do you think?

 * Do you see those posts in the Posts section of your blog’s Dashboard, or are 
   they in the Pages section?

 * I checked and only the said About page is there.

 * If the missing pages are not in either the Posts or Pages section of your blog’s
   Dashboard, double-check the Trash sub-section of each.
 * If they aren’t there either, then I’m afraid they’re gone for good.

 * I guess they are gone then. But since I had everything backed up before posting
   new articles, can I somehow get them in my October Archive or can they show up
   only as new post. How did I get posting wrong in the first place to avoid future
   occurrence?

 * It’s hard to say how it went wrong, since it was so long ago.
 * If you restore a database backup, you’ll lose everything done since the backup,
   so it’s best to probably re-write those, or open the database backup in a plain
   text editor and copy/paste the post content of the missing posts.
