You can still make Wordpress sites and the advertising is minimal.
Godaddy has low cost names and reasonable hostiing and
site building costs. You pay each year to keep the URL and for
hosting costs to display your webpage. $10 - $20 pear year just to keep the name.

Odd domains might be cheaper, but a short named ".com" is best for
people to remember and find you. PaPal work reliably to pay for most
everything online.

People are drawn to a website by the amount of new content
that you constantly add to your website.

You don't need to pay for all that just to create one link.
There are 1000's of ways to create a link. I think the free
blogs here allow for commercial outgoing links...but not sure.
Your blog function here might work well and much cheaper.

What people sometimes do is register multiple, related domains and have the extra ones redirect to the main one they want to use. This is for branding purposes.

I found them to be extremely helpful.
There were times I could not figure out the instructions they gave me, I am not tech-savvy, and they just went and did it for me.

I couldn't figure out Wordpress.
And i needed to have a lot more content added.
So I had somebody do it for me.
The "Add to card" buttons is what I had trouble with.
But, if you are not selling product as I am, I don't think you should have any problems.
