Can you host your own domain name?

Yes, this is possible. However, it requires good technical knowledge and it is time consuming to set up and keep running. First, you must buy the domain name from a recognized seller, then set up your server. Obviously, you need access to the internet and your IP address must not change. From here, due to the fact there are many technical needs, you need to understand how to use the DNS server software and how to configure it and add the domain; if you don’t, then hosting is likely to be too much of a challenge. You’ll need to do a lot of research and be prepared to spend a lot of time working this out.
