| People can reach you by your IP. Or you can use a dynamic DNS server like dyndns.org for example. |

I have several domains registered, and they were bought from a company called 123reg.co.uk they allow you to change the DNS entries for the domains and also the MX records for the email side of the domains.
As a result, I added my fixed IP address to the DNS entry for the domain, so now my domain points to my apache server.
Cheers,
Phil |
