As a new user I have been attempting to find the most efficient (and straightforward) method for selecting individuals to include in a GEDCOM file for export to my website. Generally this will be the ancestors of a root individual but I then need to manually add some spouse records where required. I have been experimenting with setting flags for the individuals included in each GEDCOM so that I can reuse the list for subsequent updates but then wondered about Named Lists. Advice most welcome.

'Named Lists' are the way to go. You can have as many as you like, and include whichever records you want. Then whatever command you use to select the records it is easy to pick the desired 'Named List' for inclusion. Are you using the FH 'Publish > Create a Website' command or FILE > Import/Export > Export > GEDCOM File? Either way there are Plugins that may enhance your output. BTW: I suggest you join for free at FHUG http://www.fhug.org.uk/. Where there are Forums, a Knowledge Base, video tutorials, free downloads, companion programs, expert advice, and tips for newcomers.
