For your daily shaver, You need an untreated/unpasted strop. Just plain leather. Any type of paste or compound would be for touch ups when your blade is dull. You don't want to do that very often, only when need.
Any one of those strops in the link you provided would be fine. I like the one in the second link with the felt/linen component. Also, English bridle has good draw, it's not too slick. Get your method down on that, before you move on to the more expensive strops. If you take your time, and concentrate on what your doing, you can avoid cutting it, which is a common to new users. Most guys like to do 20-30 laps on linen, and then 50-75 on leather prior to each shave. Check this link too:

Ken has a plain leather strop for about 20 bucks. Great for beginners...
If you have a Tandy leather by you, you can pick up 3" wide belt leather, which is great stropping material. If your so inclined. You can fabricate your own, and have enough to make a paddle for pasting.
