Hosting my own site (WAMP + dynamic IP0 **port 80 blocked

Hey,

I'm going to be using WAMP but I have a dynamic IP. I want to host my own site and have already purchased a domain name.

Also, port 80 is blocked.

How can I do this?

 

You could use something like DynDNS to update your IP address to a specific hostname and then just point people to a port number at your router which redirects to your host inside the network. I've done that before, but it's not ideal.

 

:S:S

In steps please, I've tried stuff like this before but its never worked.

 

setup dyndns and point it to your host by installing their software
route port 8080 to your computer via the router
setup WAMP or whatever you're using to listen on that port

done

 

My ISP is nice enough to not switch my IP constantly but I've ended up moving a large chunk of my sites to a $6.99 a month GoDaddy account. I get 1000GB of transfer per month and 100GB of space. For most sites that's sufficient.

A few large sites still reside on the home server running on an alternate port but mostly it's just for testing out new ideas.
