If you have a cable or DSL connection with a static IP, then you're pretty much set. Just set up apache or whatever program you are using to serve up, and build your site. You may want to register a domain name so that people can go to www.whatever.com instead of http://insert.your.ip.here/whatever.

You don't need a T1 unless you have a ton of people viewing your page and they are experiencing huge slowdowns.

If my baby don't love me, I know, I know, her sister will.
