Define this down on paper and then write it all down.  Then put ideas into your website to enhance the original idea.  It may end up being a home for the new hobbyist or for a new professional.  If it's the latter create the pages to choose the direction you want to achieve.

Igation

Navigational menus are a source of confusion and mistakes for new visitors (especially those you just met) and the more menus you have the less chance you have of getting the information your visitors are seeking.  Too many links can be extremely help.  Watch the number of them.  The main things you will need to know is which are the most common items visited and liked, and where it can lead to.  For example, your social bookmarking sharing button may have several different locations on your website.  This can also be a source of confusion.

Multi-level layers

Make sure you are familiar with the design of your hosting platform and know how to create the navigation for the web hosting platform you have chosen.
