Generally, I would recommend Wix or another hosting based site builder. I don't use them much as a developer, but they are often the most straight forward to get a site like you're looking for up and running. I would focus on applying your effort on good copy and imagery. Think about showing happy customers, not what you do!

I would suggest using the service from inleed.se that offers the best price web hotel and domain including a one click installation of wordpress. Then after that you can install a tool called Elementor for free and use that as your website builder.

If you are only looking for simple as simple gets, thats it. I think I pay around 200 sek / year (ex. VAT/moms).

The rest of what you need is found on Youtube to learn about WordPress and Elementor where both of which is globally recognized and used tools No coding needed, but if you dont have any experience in web design you would need some guidance in the form of youtube tutorials or articles. best with YT though, preferably newer content in case the interface has changed.

If you're looking for something static and visually appealing that you can create on your own, I highly recommend using Webflow. It's a fantastic platform that offers both ease of use and stunning design options at an affordable price, allowing you to build your website quickly and beautifully.

On the other hand, if your goal is to regularly publish blog posts, make frequent changes to your content, and prioritize SEO optimization, I would suggest opting for a WordPress site.

I build all my websites using WordPress and Elementor.

There's a bit of a learning curve but they are easy enough to build once you get the hang of it.

I'm in the cleaning niche myself and also do marketing for cleaning businesses.

You want something that is good for SEO which WordPress is.

You can ask Chat GPT to write your content for you.

Get a plugin called Yaost SEO or Rank math and optimise your site for SEO. Add your sitemap to Google search console so Google can crawl your website.

You may need to watch a few hours of YouTube videos to get the hang of this.
