Running A Web Sight

How much is to running a web site?

I could make my own software discussion board but I don't have a URL or place to server the site so I can't run it.

I want to make my own software though. Thank you.

Google AppEngine is free.

I have a server. It's really easy -- just set up Linux on an old box, and get your router to forward port 80 to it. I'd recommend Apache or Lighttpd with Debian GNU/Linux.

By URL, do you mean a domain name? I use http://freedns.afraid.org/ . The names are often things like "*.something.somethingelse", but it's easier to remember than a bunch of numbers... and it's free. If you want your own domain name, check out namecheap or something. Only 8 bucks for something.com or .net or .org or whatever.

Need anything else?

>just set up Linux
Such task obviously needs a custom OS, written from scratch to utilize 100% of hardware resources

I have Linux but I don't want to use my own IP incase someone recognizes it..

If you pay me $5 a month, you can have a shell on my box.

What's your email?
