knightmetal on "Adding a dynamic block to a page"

Hello,

I started using Wordpress very recently and I've been having a confusion about the correct (or recommended) way to add dynamic regions to a page.

Say the following page is 100% static and now I want to make its sections dynamic. For the sake of simplicity, please focus on the three vertical blocks right below the main picture:

Believe it or not I haven't found any clear explanation on how to make them dynamic in Wordpress. I've read about the Page Blocks plugin, the Theme Options plugin, the get_template_part function (and some other template functions), etc; and in the end I feel like I don't quite get it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Just to put it very simple, say that all my homepage has are those three blocks lined-up vertically, I want to be able to change their content from the wp admin panel, I also want to add a picture as in the sample page. What are the steps you normally follow to achieve that?

Thanks a lot.
