Personally, I'd recommend getting your own domain name and hosting it. You can ask any LLM for a basic template (or even better, make a simple one yourself).
I have been using https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net/ since 2010 for https://samebchase.com/ , but you can use any good hosting provider.
The domain may cost around $12 per year, and hosting a low traffic website may be around $5-10 per year at most. With $20, you're sorted for the year.
Eventually, you'll get sick of writing HTML each time, at which point you can figure out how to use a static site generator which let's you write in markdown and does the work of generating the HTML. A popular one is https://gohugo.io/ or https://jekyllrb.com/
I admit, this is a bit of a learning curve, depends how much time/energy/interest you have for picking up some basic web development skills.
If all this seems like a fun challenge, I can assure you, the first time you see your webpage over the public internet will be an amazing feeling. 🤓
