Hi,

I’m looking into hosting a blog site for myself - nothing fancy, just a site where I can publish some of my thoughts and ideas. Maybe I also want a section to publish images. So, basically something lean and mostly text only.

What’s the easiest way to set this up for myself?

    I really like hugo. Everything is written in Markdown and its pretty light. Definitely not as heavy as a full CMS. I also think the themes are pretty nice.

    To deploy it you can use github pages or some cloud services (the hugo site lists some).

    Its also pretty flexible, so its pretty easy to change how you want to deploy it, or change the look.

      And even if you absolutely want to self-host the serving of static pages: Making that secure and not prone to security issues is much easier than something that can actually execute PHP.
