Great suggestions for non-technical people in there but if a real concern is ownership and control of content then the only real option is buying or renting server space and putting up a website with maybe Ghost (the most overrated blogging platform ever) or the open source Wordpress or just plain HTML. All the other options listed still could potentially shut you down for some weird TOS violation (like if you're a big KKK supporter or something). Is it likely to happen? No. But isn't this where we post our overanyzed takes on everything?

Really though, the only way to own your own web content is to run your own server, and physically control access to it. Even buying or renting server space puts your content in the control of a third party.
