For the first time hosted a website in my own desktop computer

Since midnight last night I have been trying to do this...As this year 2018 comes to an end, I have achieved a lot during this year...All thanks are to Allah Subuhaanahu Wathala...

I for the very first time in my life, has hosted a website in my own computer...I have to read and research the internet to do this as I am new to this but it was very simple and easy...

I signed up for a basic free account at www.noip.com a provider of Dynamic DNS service since the IP address of my computer is not a static IP and it will keep changing...I downloaded the client software of No-IP® and set it up by signing with my No-IP® username and password...

I have to enable port forwarding in my Huawei® internet fiber router for my desktop computer system so that Microsoft® Internet Information Service™ server can connect to the outside internet through port 80 which is not disabled by Dhiraagu...

I have now tested by going to the address http://naheez.ddns.net ( which is the host name of my website provided by No-IP® ) and it displays the sample webpage I put in the wwwroot folder of the inetpub directory which is the folder of IIS™...

As usual and always I praise Allah...

:) ... Allah Akbar...Allah is great...(Location: Male'...Date: Tuesday 25 December 2018...Time: 9:10 PM...Part of the day: Night...Weather:Nice...Temperature:Cool)
