I have experience only with Wordpress, so my opinion is not very
enlightened. But it does a damn good job, I do not see why I would want
to use anything else for basic stuff.
Example of a very nice Wordpress farm blog:

My friend Ghislain (in French, but worth looking at just for the feel)
is not super technical, yet he did something pretty awesome if you ask me:

The nice thing with Wordpress is that hosting is free if you are willing
to live with a .wordpress.com subdomain. It allows to play for a while
before commiting to a full-fledge hosting account.
Plus, Wordpress is open source, and the company behind it so far as an
impeccable track record in this regard.

That really should not be a problem, whichever hosting platform you choose.
