    You can host webpage on almost any computer. But you need extra performance if your content needs database, php, video streaming, etc. Any OS, *nix recommended

    If your site is new its better you get shared hosting like hostgator or some other host

    Start out with a shared hosting account. As your site grows you may need to upgrade to a virtual private server (VPS) or dedicated server. But if it's a new site begin with a shared host.
