Welcome from Australia Pier.
I have been trying to play for a couple of years, and have started again usin Guitar Tricks. I think this is amazing, and i have grown in confidence.
My advice from a beginer to beginer, is not to steer away from anything. I haven't been able to play bare chords, or some minor chords, and so i am limited to easy songs with basic chords. Don't limit yourself, and hit it head on.
Good luck in the journey, look forward to hearing about your progress.
