watervole | trying to create a website

I made a website several years ago using Weebly - http://southernstarlongsword.weebly.com/ - and I'm very happy with it. Weebly is easy to use and I can add images/text/links/etc with very little difficulty.

It's pretty much drag and drop. Drag a box for text to where I want it. Drag a box for a video to where I want it, etc.

But support queries to Weebly now go unanswered, so it's clear that it may not be around much longer.

So, I'm looking for somewhere else. I own my own domain names, and that's not going to change. I want something that is dead easy to use, and not too expensive. We looked at Squarespace, but that's £120 per year and I have two web sites I need homes for. Neither are commercial and neither will get masses of visitors.

I'm trying Wordpress, but it's a struggle. Nowhere as easy to use as Weebly, and the results don't look as good either. It's a steep learning curve and I'm finding it quite stressful. Most useful stuff on how to use it is behind a paywall. It's free, but that's really its only virtue for me. Here's my attempt so far- and some pages don't appear at all as I can't get the links to work... https://maypoleroundtheworld.uk/ And the layout doesn't appeal either.

Does anyone know of a good system for building webpages that is as user friendly as Weebly, but cheaper than SquareSpace?
