Best tool for creating a basic business website (piefed.social)

I'm starting a NonProfit Fediverse powered business called BT Free. I was thinking of making my homepage built on Ghost, but due to some of it's choices, I'm looking for something else.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a self hosted, possibly fediverse powered, software for creating a simple clean efficient business website landing page that explains who we are, what we're doing, etc. I am NOT a designer so something with templates or can hold my hand would be wildly helpful.

I was thinking maybe a static site generator maybe?

Anyone have ANY thoughts or suggestions? Remember there are no such things as bad ideas or comments!

I'm not doing a publishing platform really. And I can't seem to get email going. I've tried with MailerSend and while I know I can send email, through swaks, Ghost just won't. Someone told me it only uses MailGun, which I attempted to set up and after 2 days the DNS verification didn't go through, even though I konw for a fact it was there. And at this point I really don't want lock in to a specific service if that's true.
