Hello All,

Going thru a career change here and it looks like I'm going to need a
web page.  After I research all the answers you kind folks replied with,
I'm sure I can layout and design a web page (s).

Here is my question:
- should I just buy space on someones server like www.register.com for
$4.95 a month or take one of my many boxes here and build a server and
rent an address like www.no-ip.com ?

I'm really confused about what would be the easiest and cost LESS.

TIA,
BJ


Before you try to set up one yourself, make sure you can with the ISP you are using. Some ISPs block or redirect incomming port 80 connections. It may also be agenst your ISP's rules for you to run a web server. Now, if you deside have it hosted, deside how much trafic you expect, and shop around. If you are looking at fairly low trafic, such as for a personal web site, you can get 5G/month for around $11/year. This includes the web site, mail server, name server, mysql server, and a plenty of disk space. Most web hosting places also offer regestration at fairly low rates.
