Depends on the type of website:

1. Personal site (no comments, static): Use static HTML/CSS/JavaScript, maybe upload to GitHub pages or Neocities.

2. Personal site/blog (comments, technical functionality): Use WordPress, and pick one of the approximately 5 million hosting companies that support PHP and MySQL.

3. Shop (easiest solution): Use Shopify or another SaaS service for hosting eCommerce sites.

4. Shop (self hosted): WordPress + WooCommerce, Magento, various self hosted eCommerce systems

5. Everything else: Choose whatever framework you're comfortable with in whatever language you know well.
