I have registered a domain http://ishaan.vv.si. I want that if I edit the files on my computer, then the changes are made to my site. Basically I want to host my site from my local computer on the web. Please help.

Answer 1

1. Install a webserver
2. Expose the port it runs on (probably 80) to the Internet
   • port forwarding from the router
   • public IP address assigned to the computer running the webserver
3. Set up an A record for your DNS to point ishaan.vv.si to the IP address you are running the server on

Answer 2

If you want to host your site on your local computer. 1. You need a static IP. 2. A web server like IIS, Apache running on your local computer.

You need to change your named sever of your domain to your local computer.
