Hey there. I'm very good with computers, but useless with networking/ websites.
Here's my scenario;
I need to have a website online with the lowest cost possible. I have created a website on Adobe Dreamweaver. I have a spare computer and someone I know told me I could use this as a web server and host the website myself? Apparently as long as that computer is on people could access my website. I would like to use Linux on that machine to minimize costs.
I believe I'll need to purchase a domain name? Where could I purchase this?
Basically.. with what I have, how do I get my website online and what will I need? I need to know how to get my website online as I'm absolutely clueless.
Also, which version of Linux would be best for a web server machine?
Your help is much appreciated! I really know nothing on this topic!
