hello i am in Hong Kong but I want to make a webpage for visitors mainly from China. However, most of the free web hosting on web are blocked by the China government, can I run my own http server? I don't mind to have the URL address like an IP address and my webpage is rather simple and I can have the computer run for 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Will it be difficult to do so?

Thanks all.
 
You could look into xamp or wamp to get the server setup going. And something like wordpress as a cms to get a simple start at a website.

some people in other forums say that running the own server with own ip as the domain will risk being hijacked by hackers. Will it be true? Is Nod32 secure enough to handle with the possible risk? Thank you.

I do suggest looking into securing your setup. It's always possible your website gets hacked/hijacked. Doesn't matter where you host it.
