Hi I am just new to web deployment and my question is if it is possible to host your website online using your own pc for evaluation purposes only meaning the site will not be 24/7 up. I already tested my site through localhost but what I want is to test it online so that my friends can evaluate it in order for us to detect some errors. Step by step procedure is much appreciated or you can give me some links on how to do it. Btw I have used dreamweaver 2004 in developing my project
Thanks

Re: test website online via your own pc
Exactly what do you mean with 'host online with your own PC'?
If you are hosting the website on your own PC for developing or evaluation, and your PC is connected to the internet, then technically it's online. If your PC is behind a router or something, you may have to configure it to forward port 80 to your PC's LAN IP, in order for it to be accessible by the rest of the world.
