Setting up and running a website from home

[hellarda]

Hi all,

I have just purchased a domain name that I want to display a simple website with some information about my business.

Now I have a Server 2012r2 server at home, so was going to host it with IIS.

I have followed guides online to setup IIS and believe I have done it correctly.

But I don't quite understand how to get my domain that I have bought to point to my web server?

If it makes a difference I have a dynamic IP at home, so will be using DDNS. Could anyone show me/link me to a guide on how to set it up?

Cheers

Because I already have a server at home that is on 24/7, which on UPS, and a very stable (fttp) connection. It's not a mission critical website, I just want to have something that I can send people to for info etc.
