[Solved] Recommendations for hosting and CMS?
-
Pilou, I will write the content myself both in Spanish and English. Of course I'll have it checked by a native English speaker.

It can be made so that when you click the flag, it will take you to the corresponding page you're on, but in another language... This is not how I made it, and I don't see the point making it like this...?
Perfect! That's exactly what I need, and it's also Google's recommendation:

Consider cross-linking each language version of a page. That way, a French user who lands on the German version of your page can get to the right language version with a single click.

Maybe in some time your site will be translated in no time

So I decided to follow the advice of Csaba, Rich and Kim and create a WordPress site, instead of listening to Pilou and go with Weebly. So I signed up for BlueHost, which is recommended by WordPress. And you won't believe what I found after loggin in... How ironic. (Bluehost is cheaper than Weebly Pro)
I'll continue tomorrow, it's 2:22am here.EDIT: I ended up watching the video. Now I'm seriously tempted by Weebly. Maybe can just use a folder for the English version and create manual links between corresponding pages. After all, my site will be less than ten pages in each language, so a fully automagic system seems overkill.

Have you already installed WP? If you wish to install it using multisite (would be fine for multiple languages), special installation is needed. Let me know if you need some help.

Well, it turned out to be kind of a bait-and-switch. Bluehost "free" Weebly turned out to be limited to only 6 pages, and to remove this limit you must pay an extra 9 bucks/month. So I'm going with WordPress... But tomorrow. I need sleep.

My sites in free have more hundred pages! http://piloumaison.weebly.com/ and i can add any number of pages!
Where have you seen that ?
Edit
Ah ok passing with the BlueHost options above as tool!
So pass directly by WeeblyGoogle itself gives it! Or Google Chrome!
What do you want more ? -

What have you used in the end ?

I asked Bluehost for a refund and signed up for Weebly Pro. It's a joy to use!
Thank you, Pilou!

You might consider removing the gmail from the showreel.
That's about the only thing I can say.
-
Yes, I plan to replace it with an animated logo at the end.
Thanks for reminding me. -
Thanks for this thread. I'm putting together a basic WP site and that Theme Forest is great.
