First time user that can't find answer. Need online website.

HI! Thank you for even looking at this question.

I need to get a website up and running for a small group of people. I've had SQL Server for a while, but didn't have any use for it. It came with Visual Studio 2005, which gave me a little know how on scripting. Now, I have Visual Web Developer and what I need to make a web page. I just need to know how to configure all my settings to allow my website to be viewed online by anyone with an internet connection. I'm a person that understands detailed or simple directions, but I can not seem to find directions online. Now, I know what your thinking, but I've never attemped anything like this before. So, please, HELP! I need and want to learn as much as possible.

Thank you, tecfreak213

P.S. also, how do I change or get a web address? Thanks.

Hi,

Welcome to Forum.

You will require a Web Server (Internet Information Server ), A dedicated Internet connection, SQL Server, IP Address to bind to web server, Domain Name

Setup SQL Server with Database

Setup IIS Server (with Internet Connection and dedicated IP address bind to that, refer below article on how to setup IIS)

Create Directory on the IIS Server and deploy you web application in it

Bind you Directory to IIS
