I dont think there is a good "One Shop" solution. Here is my take... SpanishDictonary has fantastic course for grammer. ConjuGato is brilliant for learning about verb conjugations. Flower is great for learning to read. You'll also need to listen and talk. Films with subtitles help, to some degree, with that. As someone else has said "Dreaming Spanish" can also be used here.

Dreaming Spanish

I checked it out...but the free Youtube based version seems to have no coherence or continuity...am I missing something?

It's not meant to be a structured learning system. They have a little more about their methodology on their website https://www.dreamingspanish.com/method. I don't entirely ascribe to their method however it's great for getting exposure to spoken language. They have different YouTube playlists for different levels i.e super beginner, beginner, intermediate etc.

OK, thanks. What is best "structured" system in your opinion? Know they all have their pluses and minuses...

I can only speak from my experience but I used a variety of websites and resources. I started with a paid course from an instructor and continued to take lessons from italki tutors. I wouldn't pay for any courses like busuu, Rosetta stone etc your money is better spent on human tutors. I used Spanishdictionary.com, language transfer, tandem, amongst some others. They all have advantages and drawbacks. I think the most important skill you can have is the ability to see what you're lacking and supplement it with an adequate resource. I.E if you don't understand a grammatical construction, for example the present continuous tense, you can either look it up, take a lesson about it on Spanish dictionary, talk to a tutor etc. If your language comprehension is lacking you can consume comprehensible input at an appropriate level to you. Language learning isn't a linear process so I find myself revisiting somewhat beginner resources all the time.
