    Use wordpress.com that’s a free site which helps you make and host your own site, and it’s pretty much free for your usage.

    I use it free of cost. Here’s an example of my site and I made that using wordpress without spending money: https://www.djtonecraft.wordpress.com

    You can choose a theme, modify the text, make new pages and basically do most of the things a website can do for free.

    I hope I helped,

    Hi Shoni.

    Based on your requirements (embedding various social media sites’ content/a place a DJ logo and a bio), I agree with Tonecraft that a website is the way to go.

    JustGo is more about automating your social media posts, Soundcloud posts, Mixcloud posts etc. You do get an artist landing page, but it’s fairly basic. ToneDen is halfway between JustGo and your own website. It does do some integration of social media, but probably not quite in the way you want.

    These days you can get free or cheap plug-ins for websites that pull in your facebook feed and soundcloud/mixcloud/you tube posts in a reasonably structured way. My site uses a few of these and I’ve been fairly happy with them –

    Wordpress is definitely an option and there are also fairly cheap website creation services out there if you need extra help.

    Hope this is useful!

    Great suggestions homies, good looking out.

    @GroovePunk – I’d like to see your website if you are willing to share either here or PM.

    The WordPress sounds like a good idea since I have had one for years which, ironically, part of my artist name is derived from. So I guess it’s perfectly suitable as soon as I can figure out the widgets and things.

    Would anyone by chance have any recommendations for low-cost/free personal websites? Also, any for useful plug-ins?

    I will of course be doing research myself, but any info helps speed up the process by leaps and bounds. 🙂

    No problem. My website is at http://www.groovepunk.co.uk

    I’m currently in the process of building a new one though as I this website a bit old now and often clunky and slow to load!

    Good luck with your project. I look forward to seeing the finished site 🙂

    https://snowfieldrhapsody.wordpress.com/

    That’s the up-and-working version of the site.

    Will update with mixify and YouTube links for media when I get new media for them and will delete my Beatport and ToneDen account since no traffic is going there. (have to contact support for both since there are no overt options for deleting -_-)

    Let me know what y’all think and any suggestions/criticisms/compliments will be appreciated.
