Technical question

I have a multi paged pdf of my portfolio that I would like potential employers to be able to access via the web. I don't know how to build a website (I am starting school in a few weeks for web design). I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to how this could be accomplished. I'd love to have a link I could list on my resume that potential employers could go to and view the pdf of my portfolio. Is there a way to do this without making a web page, like with a ftp site or something? My experience has been in print, so I'm really sorry if I sound naive. I appreciate any help I can get.

You don't need the web or a website. All you really need, it sounds like, is an Internet-connected location to keep your PDF and a URL to download it.

Dropbox would work for that or Google Drive. If you really do want a very basic website, Google Sites would likely work, although I've never used it.
