Be aware that if you want a machine in a data center you're going to have to pay rent.
I would recommend a VPS/cloud server if you're just going to host a website. I myself use digitalocean cloud hosting for some of my websites/subwebsites, they're fairly cheap and reliable. (I have a 2.3Mhz single core, 1gb ram, 30GB SSD and 2TB traffic.)
There are many other vps/cloud providers out there, though. Just do some research and think of what works best for you.-
Agree x 1 -
Winner x 1 - List

Ok thanks I will look into that. How much traffic do you get?
-
I checked it out and you have one for $10 a month. Not bad at all. I would love that. Im going to buy one soon
-
I need to host around 5-20 people for the next month then I will upgrade.
-
What I don't get is do you buy the domain seperately or do they give you the option to get one.
If they don't give the option how do you connect the domain to the cloud server -
nvm I think i got it
-
I don't get it
-
it says to add a domain I need to add the IP address?
-
So I need a windows and have ubuntu on it? Since I got a macbookpro

kukelekuuk C͕̹̲̽ͪ͐ͩ̔L̜̦̝͈ͦ̿̾̿ḘA̻̗̤̳̐ͭ̆̿̃̑ͭN̊̓͑̇ͯBuilder ⛰️ Ex-EcoLeader ⚜️⚜️⚜️ Premium UpgradeThe server has linux operating systems, this is recommended when running a webserver.
You also need to buy a separate domain and link that to your server with your domain registrar (or set the nameservers to digitalocean ones so you can use digitalocean's services)
I would recommend reading up on web hosting, dns, nameservers and the Linux operating systems. It'll be well worth it if you want to do this stuff professionally. -
hmm thanks. Ill get some notes on this and try to work this out. I am not so good at networking stuff :p
-
I need to get a linux computer then. Should I get CentOS for it.

kukelekuuk C͕̹̲̽ͪ͐ͩ̔L̜̦̝͈ͦ̿̾̿ḘA̻̗̤̳̐ͭ̆̿̃̑ͭN̊̓͑̇ͯBuilder ⛰️ Ex-EcoLeader ⚜️⚜️⚜️ Premium UpgradeYou don't need a linux computer to use a Linux VPS. (unless you're talking about your server)Also, I would recommend ubuntu 12.04 LTS, it's great for people who don't know much about Linux.
-
So I can just signup and it will work. I don't need any special computer or anything? What do you mean about "unless you talking about your server"
So then can I connect the webhost with MAMP? or do I need linux to run LAMP -

kukelekuuk C͕̹̲̽ͪ͐ͩ̔L̜̦̝͈ͦ̿̾̿ḘA̻̗̤̳̐ͭ̆̿̃̑ͭN̊̓͑̇ͯBuilder ⛰️ Ex-EcoLeader ⚜️⚜️⚜️ Premium UpgradeThe LAMP server runs on the VPS, this doesn't need to be installed on your own computer. All you may need is an SSH client. (Putty for windows, or just typing "ssh <user>@<ip>" in the terminal for mac/linux)
-
but what about my phpmyadmin database. I will need that.
