Ask HN: I bought a domain, now what?

Hi All - this is probably a stupid question but I am teaching myself how to code and want to build my own website. I want a section to make blog posts, have my resume/portfolio and a contact page - so pretty simple at the moment. Eventually, I would like to set up email with my domain, so that I can send and receive emails with that name.

I have already bought a domain (from google domains), but don't know how to do the next steps. Please advise on what you've done to get your website up and running, particularly what you would suggest for a young/new web developer. Thank you!
