If you want to build something like Upwork, then Django is definitely a good option, but of course, as you have guessed, you have really much learning to do.

--I will consider your professional advise Antonis. However, what I would like to build is a (1st) freelancer website (upwork or like), I know that there are hundreds of these right now, but with a subtle twist and to offer both client and contractor something more, it may be feasible. (2nd) I fail to find Angel Investor so I have to cut cost everything to the rock bottom, I have a lot of time available to study and (plus motivation of course) and (3nd) I've done number of websites with blogspot (but plugins are paid monthly). So, I was thinking to do it myself the backbone with Django.Please tell me more what I should have know to bring this project to life.
Thanks for your support,Danny

Django is not for building web sites, it's for building web applications. You might instead want to look at Mezzanine or Django-CMS or Wagtail (these are all software for building web sites and they're based on Django), or, if being based on Django is not a requirement, you can use Wordpress or Drupal. There are really many more, there must be tens. I believe the most popular is Wordpress.
If you use any of these and install it on a server, you will only need to pay for the domain and hosting (and spend considerable time setting it up).
If you use wordpress.com, they set it up for you, so you don't need to install it yourself, and the cost is probably less than getting a virtual server to install stuff yourself.
I don't want to discourage you from using Django if it's for you. I just don't want you to get the impression that "Django is bad/complicated/painful" when you just might be using it for the wrong purpose.

Hi Antonis,--
No I have not yet tried wordpress, but the answer is budget wise. I would think that after these exercises, I am just going to pay (I think) the domain and hosting only.

depending on what you mean with "build a website", you may be looking at the wrong thing. Have you tried, for example, to build a web site at wordpress.com? If yes, why is this not sufficient for you and you want to learn Django?
