ARLIS-L comes through again!! Many thanks to all who offered suggestions for personal website builders!!. Since I posted my query, I located a site that discusses (and recommends) five different personal website builders and does not seem to be selling a particular one. Each one is recommended for a different characteristic. Here is a link to the site: https://www.websiteplanet.com/blog/best-personal-website-builders/ I think I will try the free Wix first as it is especially recommended for beginners. Thanks again.
