Wordpress? (Kidding...). I like Python Flask or Python Bottle.

For a small site I would just write the HTML. I realize this isn't a popular opinion nowadays, but sometimes it beats monkeying with frameworks in my opinion. Especially when you don't need to. And easier to set up hosting on shared hosting services. Check the purecss.io post from earlier this morning. They have some nice layouts.

Exactly! You will probably enjoy learning a few things by building a simple site from scratch and you will have a better feel for selecting any frameworks after. I would recommend getting this beautiful book by Jon Duckett that covers both the design and development basics for a website: http://www.amazon.com/HTML-CSS-Design-Build-Websites/dp/1118...
I agree, if it's only a small site, why mess with all the other crap
