You can use your home PC for hosting in a few simple steps and save money. If you have an old laptop or PC and a broadband line connection at home‚ you can create your own website for free. The Apache server is the most commonly used for this purpose not only because it is free but also because it is more efficient. You can custom install the software and then change the install directory of Apache to the folder you want. You will also have to create a root directory for your website. Change the default
Apache web directory to your own web directory and create a test page with HTML. Open the appropriate port‚ locate your site and get the IP of your home PC to finish the process.
