You might want to look into a CMS. I'd recommend Drupal because it is a great framework and once you learn more programming you will be a ble to do anything you want with it.
There is a steep learning curve, however I think it is worth it.

My babies live in a foreign land and I want to start a website where fathers in a similar situation can share with each other. I suppose it would be more of a bulletin board.

Your question is a bit open ended, what do you plan on doing with said website? Is it just a personal wordpress blog? Something serious? If it's something serious I would look at the grid hosting packages... They're a little bit more expensive, but you get a load balanced cluster serving your page compared to a single server. (obviously if it's just a tinker about personal site... you don't need the whole redundancy thing as our uptime is pretty good by industry standards).
With the grid and economy hosting you lost the whole website tonight functionality. But if you know html, or are having someone else design it for you -- that's not too big of a deal.
If you can respond with more specifics as to what you're looking for... I'm sure the list could help you out.

Well, I'm going to to register my first domain and get hosting with godaddy (unless you know of something better). Anyways, I don't know which hosting plan to go with, web hosting economy or 5-page website builder. I'm thinking webhosting economy but the description godaddy gives isn't very descriptive. So I suppose I should ask you guys who know more about these things then me what the pros and cons are of these different services.
