Step 9Hosting
To have a public website, the site has to be hosted somewhere.
If you have one or more servers at home or business that you can use, then that's one way to go. Another option is to get a hosting service to host your site for you. Depending on the needs for your site (amount of traffic, infrastructure required, etc), you could choose a virtual server, a dedicated server, or a cluster of dedicated servers. Virtual hosting being the cheapest, and a cluster of dedicated servers being the most expensive.
There are many hosting providers out there and the prices vary quite a lot. Find something that meets your needs. Amazon has a set of services that can be used for this purpose and are priced competitively: EC2 for computing power (i.e. servers), S3 for storage, and others.
