whoa IG, long time no see man :) Welcome to our domain..... no pun intended !! :p
Now, as far as your query, youre better off starting with something simple and free, and build up from there, depending on your needs.
I wouldnt focus on the domain registry stuff yet, as quite commonly a fee could be involved..
why dont you try google web page creator (
https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?service=pages&continue=http%3A%2F%2Fpages.google.com%2F<mpl=yessignups) All you need is a google account, which you probably have if you have a gmail etc account. Otherwise, signup is quick/easy free anyway.
good luck
