I have been postponing my website creation for around 20 years. Last one I did was in Geocities, and I am not even kidding. So I am absolutely clueless on what would be a good easy solution. The only reason why I bothered to reply is that you asked for cheap hosting, so...
For the longest time, I used http://www.nosupportlinuxhosting.com/
Priced like Doug Ford's beer, it works well for low traffic applications. For my use (email), well, everyone thought I was sending spam. Obviously. Being cPanel-based, it's not really hard to have a website there without much hassle, and there are quite a few platforms available.
This is one I'll keep in mind for my own future use, but this is more low-level than what I had in mind in this case...
I did spin something at one point, and it sat there with the default page until I moved it all out.
I assume this platform is like Wix, instead of something like WordPress, correct?
Yeah, more Wix-like. And maybe Wix is the best solution in this case... I just wanted to know if folks had experience with any of these, and any recommendations for/against.
Thanks, Gilbert

My wife has a small web site that has been hosted on a free hosting service called webs.com, which is going to discontinue their free hosting option at the end of March. She's looking for an alternative, preferably free, hosting service, but would also consider cheap options. This should be something user-friendly for a non-technical person to set up and maintain. Any recommendations? Thanks, Gilbert
