You can make your website available to users on the internet by hosting your website. There are different IT Support and Computer Support companies which also provide the hosting services but what if you want to do the hosting yourself. It is very simple and easy:
• Install a web server: Most Windows operating systems either come with a web server, or one can be downloaded for free depending on the version of Windows.
• Configure the web server: In this step you simply tell your web server where to find your website that is sitting somewhere in your computer.
• Get a domain name
• Configure DNS. This is where you associate your website name with the IP address of your computer.
• Your router needs to know about the computer that has the web page so it knows where to forward users to so configure your router
• Most people have a dynamic IP address given to them by their ISP. This means the IP address of your computer might change so you should adopt dynamic IP solution.
• Securing your server
