You need a server to host your site so that it can be viewed over the internet. This server can either be an Internet Service Provider or of your own.

Basics of web hosting and what to look forFirst Things First

Domain names are fairly cheap, you can go to www.godaddy.com where they sell them for $9.00 a year or sometimes, the web host provider will either sell them or give it to you with their plan.
The web hosting company is basically renting you space on their web servers. Whatever your website will be, a web hosting company will let anyone in the world view your site.
