For a while now, I've been toying around with the idea of making my own website. There's plenty of free resources & templates available, so it shouldn't be all that hard, right?
Wrong.
Basically, as easy as everything looks to operate & put together for a great deal, there's still one problem; I don't really know the first about making a website that a) might catch someones attention, and b) would not look like a mess concocted by someone with zero coding skills.
Rather than waltz on here going 'So who wants to do this stranger who hasn't even properly introduced himself a favour for absolutely nothing?', I'd just like to ask for advice on this. Here's what I'd like to do (Although I'm not sure if I could do it all with a free template):
- A front page with an introduction about myself, what I do & what the site is for (My voice acting & writing)
- A series of connecting pages, including;
Since I'm incredibly inexperienced with this stuff, I'm looking for something that would be easy to use, customisable & have the capabilities to give me everything I need from it. If anyone can help, then thank you. I appreciate it.

- A gallery to upload some of the thumbnails & other pieces I create for both forms of media.
- Individual sections to upload/more likely embed videos from YouTube (as well as possibly the option to have one or two of them on the front page as well) & post my writing chapter by chapter.
- A blog/news segment.
- (Possibly) An 'about' segment. I have a feeling that would be rather helpful >.>
- The option to contact me, preferably through a system that involves typing up the message on the website then sending it to an email address.
