Sorry for the vague question but thats about all the detail I can currently provide. Thanks in advance.
Interesting website 1337KitsuneGFX.

Maybe you should start by installing a local webserver on your SOHO LAN and get very familiar with that, develop your skills thoroughly before moving you web site over to a local affair.

To that end, this tutorial might help you get started on your local LAN, it's only a short step from there to make it server to the internet once you are very happy with your setup.
