I'm setting up the document root of my web server to point to a folder elsewhere on the disk. Should I be using a hard link, or a soft link, with the ln command?
Also, I'm having trouble getting the symbolic link pointing to a directory. I get the message ln: /Users/me/directory/: Is a directory when I try to set up the link.

A soft link is enough for your purpose. You simply need to omit the trailing slash, i.e.
ln -s ~/me
