If you just want to make a progress page for a small robot, then you can do just about anything....the software you use should be the software you want to use on a larger project.

You can use very simple html tags with a text editor like notepad to make a simple web page.

I agree that putting it on the existing team host is a great idea, it won't cost you anything and will force you to learn how to work with that host.
