I have always wanted to build a very simple personal website or blog.
Examples: http://www.paulgraham.com/index.html
and
http://ruina.tam.cornell.edu/.<p>I have some experience with web development, but this will be a learning experience. Looking for all recommendations on how best to host and develop a website that is entirely my own.<p>Thank you!
HTML and CSS are your friends.<p>When you progress to a point where you want to add interactivity on your site, learn Javascript.<p>Host your site on the cheapest VPS you can find. It'll give you an excuse to learn Linux and basic sysadmin.<p>[0] - <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML" rel="nofollow">https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML</a><p>[1] - <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS" rel="nofollow">https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS</a><p>[2] - <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript" rel="nofollow">https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript</a>
