1/2:  Npub.pro takes your Nostr notes and basically displays them as a themed website (you pick the theme). It says “Set up any tool for analytics, lead generation, monetization you desire” and has an icon for MailChimp and others, but I don’t know how that work - you can ask @brugeman about it - he’s building it and is great about answering questions. As far as I know, you can’t integrate with WordPress.

I do recommend you set up an npub.pro website and play with it, but I don’t think it will easily do all the things you want right now. You can see my npub.pro site here: https://rustypuppy.npub.pro - that’s the theme I picked. You can go to https://npub.pro, scroll down, and you’ll see the different theme options and example real sites. You can even preview your own content in the different themes to find the one you like. 

 Mailchimp and others can be integrated using code injections, i.e. if you want to collect emails for the newsletter.

"Wordpress integration" is a very broad idea, need more specifics about what exactly the needs are.

Selling digital products is definitely planned on npub.pro, there is already a nostr-standard for that, we just need to build support for it. 

 2/2:  First I recommend you think about how much time and money you want to spend on this website. Sounds like you are in it for the long haul. That said, I recommend you consider your domain name to be the “one I use for a long time” and that the website you build now will change over the years.

Back to Time and Money: Money is your domain cost, which is basically a lease, and you’ll have to renew every year in order to keep ownership of. There’s also hosting fees (you can usually get a deal if you pay yearly over monthly): this is where you pay for space (and a certain level of maintenance) on someone’s servers where the content of your website will exist, and for using the tools to build your website. If you have an email provider separate from the website tool, that will be an extra cost. Some of the WordPress plugins have one-time or monthly costs as well. 

NOTE: If you are using an instance of WordPress installed by your hosting service on your domain (compared to using wordpress.com) be aware you will need to maintain the plugins; it’s won’t be a set-up-once-and-it-runs kind of thing. I had a WP site like that for many years and got tired of the backend maintenance. I currently use Payhip.com for my site. It’s designed for e-commerce, but you can also set up individual webpages which I’ve done for my writing and one about Nostr - https://heidi2524.com

What tool you use to build your website will determine how the features you listed that you wanted will layout and display. Most have a certain level of customization (colors, fonts, placement on the webpage, navigation). You’ll have to spend time playing with them to understand how it all works, as each is slightly different. 

I highly recommend having a bunch of content ready before you start building the site: text, photos (for your gallery and for the website itself like headers and for categories), metadata, etc. You can change it all later, but having assets ready will help you focus on the building of the site, compared to having to go off and create/find something in the middle of creating your Home page, or Contact page, or a product page for one of your digital products. 

Sorry if the above is stuff you already know. I wanted to start very basic so you have an idea of what you’re getting into, because there’s a lot to it if you do it all on your own.  👍 

 Thank you, yeah it def is a lot to take in but i really appreciate the info 

I’d love my operating cost per month to be less than $50 a month, I’m not sure if that figure is realistic

In terms of time, I’d love to launch it by end of year, i want it to be quality and am will to learn what i need to get it there

Like you mentioned I’ll begin now searching for different platforms and building out my assets I’d like to use
