I will definitely look into python web frameworks in the future, they seem

Look into Flask. You can do something really simple:
https://github.com/Rosuav/MinstrelHall
All the code is in one file for simplicity, though for a larger
project, you can break it up as required. (Compared to PHP, where
you're _forced_ to have exactly one file per entry-point, this is a
nice flexibility.) Then I just have one line in my Apache config file
that looks something like this:
WSGIScriptAlias / /path/to/scripts/MinstrelHall/mh.wsgi
and Apache does all the rest. There's some cruft in that code to get
around a few oddities, but for the most part, writing a page is as
simple as writing a function, decorated to manage routing, that
returns render_template("somefile.html"). It's pretty easy.
Another nice thing about Flask is that you can run it standalone without
Apache. I'm knocking something together right now using Flask, and I'm
intending to run it without Apache at all. There'll be an haproxy in front of
it for other reasons, but to get off the ground you don't even need that.

If you take something apart and put it back together again enough times, you
will eventually have enough parts left over to build a second one.
