This is a very good question and a question that I hear a lot which was one of the motivating factors for starting this blog. The answer really depends on your knowledge of HTML & CSS. If you have limited or no knowledge in web page creation then I would certainly advise you to go with a platform such as WordPress. Once you have decided on a domain name (check out the post on <a href="http://www.websitetips4u.com/how-to-get-domain-name/" rel="nofollow">How to Get a Domain Name</a>) and you have chosen a host (see <a href="http://www.websitetips4u.com/how-to-host-a-website/" rel="nofollow">How to Host a Site</a> ), then it is quite easy to set up WordPress via your hosting site. There are lots of free templates to choose from, already offered by your host when you log on to your administration panel. You can of course purchase a template, but there are so many good ones offered for free that you might like to explore those first. One of the reasons I like WordPress so much is that you can set up a nice-looking site in a matter of hours. Then you are all set to start blogging. I particularly like the fact that as soon as you discover that you want your site to do something additional or offer something extra to your visitors (e.g. a poll), then you can simply search for a free WordPress plugin that will do it for you. Then through your administration panel (or dashboard) you just click a few options to install it (no requirement to touch code). Another great feature is the fact that even the simplest of templates incorporates a site search. So again, there is no need to code anything. This is one platform that allows developers to create a professional looking site quickly so that they can get down to the real goal of writing interesting content for their blog or site. I hope this helps eliminate some of the confusion. Thanks for dropping by.

If you would like visitors to your site to comment on the photos, then you could set it up as a blog. But it sounds like you are planning a static site with a gallery of photos. In that case, you could start with a simple 5 or 6 page website and add additional pages as required. My next post is on how to create a simple website. In the meantime you can refer to my posts on choosing a domain name and how to host your site to get started. Carol, this sounds like a really good idea.
