Can you provide more detail on what you're actually looking to post and how much functionality you want to include? On the lowest effort end, squarespace is a pretty decent option for getting something that looks nice up and running quickly without needing to deal with server stuff. It works for several colleagues, but has some flexibility limitations. The next step up would probably be a Wordpress installation either on your own server or the lower-effort hosted solutions from wordpress.com. Personally I can't stand wordpress (it's become immensely bloated and keeping it updated and all your plugins/themes/whatever in sync and playing nicely can be a pain), but it works well for a huge number of people. After that you're looking at rolling your own custom page on your own server, maybe a simple themeforest template on a shared host. I don't recommend this approach these days unless you're itching to get your hands dirty with some code whenever you want to update something.

Thanks for the reply: very quickly, I'm looking primarily at essentially showing off my analytical abilities and making available articles and writing. It is essentially marketing for...me. I appreciate I'm being a bit vague, because I'm just trying to gauge what the state of play/possibilities are at this point. I'm really not concerned with (in fact probably against) social involvement such as comments or community forming things on my site. Its all me. I'm torn about whether it could be integrated with the likes of social media (to automatically make posts to an equivalent facebook/twitter page/account). I do not need/want to make any money off of the site itself, so I don't want to worry about advertising, and indeed, want to keep it off the site and make it 100% gauged around user accessability. Its goal is to make money by people being interested in hiring me and what i do, rather than generate revenue by views of the site. Really, its going to be a very close form to that of a fancy blog/versions, but posts may take forms of blog posts, articles, presentations, books or software links/articles etc. I would appreciate some way to apply themes and manage or structure my content. Don't know if that helps at all...
