Hello all my friends:
am a music producer .
need to find a professional and Accessible way to build a professional portfolio for me, Containing all my audio / video projects.
I purchased a domain + host, and one of my friends helped me building a website, but i can not upload or modify my content there.
+, the layout is not atttractive, because if we build an attractive site, it will not be accessible enough. also, am not a developper to do so.
my question is that can i use dropbox for instance and put all my previous samples, in a good classification?
will it be professional?
also, if we use dropbox, can we enhance the interface for this link to be looking attractive?
and, if i send the link to anyone that does not have dropbox, can he/she open all my content?
or, what do you think that i can do, to get a professional look + accessible way to modify content?
note that, many things are audio, not video,
Or, should i convert them to video and put them on youtube for instance?
all ideas are truely appreciated

website
regarding your website question, that is absolutely not true. I'm not a web developer but I do test websites for wcag compliance. Just because a site is attractive, does not mean it's not accessible. because making a website "attractive" mostly deals with css, while the accessibility is mostly html and javascript, but I could be proven wrong on that. for example, one "attractive" website is apple.com. it meets wcag standards, and I'm not sure how it looks, but given apple has a vested interest in people buying products, it's probably pretty attractive. using dropbox isn't necessarily bad, but that does take away from the professional angle. my advice, make sure your host that you bought has more than a couple gigabytes, which might end up being your problem, depending on what audio format you're presenting your projects in. hope this helps!
host is 4 GB
THis is my host size,
but, i need something that i can change myself
My Site and Workflow
I run my personal website on WordPress, which serves as a living portfolio of my work.
The site runs on an accessibility-ready theme from StudioPress, so I just drop my content in. the nice thing about the StudioPress themes is that the layout is already done for you. the templates look decent and there are accessible plugins you can get for your site like sharing buttons and others that will work well with screen readers.
I use a simple HTML audio player plugin for audio files.
For content updates, I use the MarsEdit app for publishing content changes.
For managing the media library, I find it easiest to use the site back end, and then do everything else in MarsEdit.
For example, I can paste in a shortcode for the audio player and have it appear in a post or on a page.

Static site generators
You can also use static site generators such as Hugo or Jekyll to create a Web site, then upload it to a Web server. There are tutorials availabel online. I use Hugo to build my personal Web site, whcih is text - not audio or video, but I could readily include audio and video files if I so decided.
If you have Hombrew installed on the Mac, you can use it to install the necessary tools.
The advantage here is that there's no database, and the Web pages are simply sent to the client without having to be generated dynamically on the server. This also has security advantages.
You can write your own HTML template or use an existing one helpfully provided by the community.
