If you use apache as your webserver,  your externally-viewable files will
be located in ~/public_html.  Then you can set your home directory to
world read and search (so they can read the directory and search it to
find public_html).  All the files in ~ can be whatever you like (world no
read/write,  etc.),  except public_html,  which must be world
read/search,  and the files in public_html,  which of course must be world
read.
