Web Pages Are Easy (for the most part)!
Most teachers I know would like to publish student work on the web (safely), but are intimidated by the process. The answer for you is PB Wikis (PB stands for peanut butter, as in “as easy as making a peanut butter sandwich).
The site is free to educators, costs nothing, runs no ads, and requires only the knowledge
of running Microsoft Word to operate (unless you want to create a new page; this requires a little more tech).
For an example, check out this entry by the 3rd graders at Park Elementary. It took a couple of hours to learn the nuances, upload the pictures and cut and paste the reports. How long does it take us to make up a bulletin board spot on our wall (and how often will parents show up at the classroom to see it)?
As more pages appear (3rd grade Park is working on a poetry page) I will give you the link. Try it out for yourself.
