What advice and cautionary tales would you give on setting up a website/space with today's tools?

Emphasis on individual online space, so not a forum/federated platform, more like maybe a blog or portfolio or anything else more experimental. Suppose the full gamut of tech familiarity from unfamiliar to familiar.

You can save a lot of money with an open source CMS that has low hosting requirements.

Are low hosting requirements similar to low system specs, or...? Do you happen to have any preferences in mind?

Yeah it's the same thing. If you need to connect to a database a lot that usually is more expensive, but static site generators are cheap to host.
