I want to build a “pirate portfolio” of all my personal fan works. There’s manga, anime, documentaries, book chapters, all sorts of things I’ve translated myself from Russian and English. Mostly Japanese, British and modern Russian content. No USA.

What do you guys think would be the best place to host the website? Not the content itself, which I plan on uploading to mega until I can afford to build a small home server.

I live in a “pirate-friendly” country (Brazil), but it won’t make any difference if the website platform itself is located in a regulated country, am I right? They can have it taken down anyway.

I’m thinking of nothing special, even a simple rentry page, minimally customized, would do.

So, what do you guys think I should do to protect my website from being randomly taken down? How to post the links? Where to host the websites? Thanks!

    i host my site on BlueHost with WordPress because it’s fairly cheap, easy, no set up (WordPress pre installed).

    You do have to know how to use WordPress (not any harder than using Excel, really).

      I’ve been developing for WP for over a decade and I’m just blown away when a grandma who can’t use her phone for some reason knows how to use WordPress.

        yeah, I mean if you’re writing your own plug-ins/ multi level menus / themes from scratch it gets a tad more complicated (but really not much more than variable = data_for_variable and if x then y) but really it’s just a file system with posts instead of files.
