I would definitely not recommend WordPress.

If you just want a website for cheap: Bearblog, carrd.co, etc.

if you want all the bells and whistles on a platter: Squarespace, Wix, etc.

if you want to supply all the HTML/CSS yourself: Github Pages or Cloudflare Pages.

(Later, if you want to host the above (except the "bells and whistles" tier) yourself: Hetzner, Digital Ocean, etc.)
