It depends on what you want to do. If you are wanting to host over the Internet, then you will have to check with your current provider. The two biggest issues are how you are connected and security. You would more than likely have to get a cable connection for business or setup your own with a T1 line. Neither is real cheap. You will have to have this machine running all the time also. You will also need to setup security to keep the baddies out.
The best thing to do is to setup a local webserver with Linux(BSD)/Apache and run your server until you can learn well enough to set up shop on the Internet. Personal opinion is that it is so cheap with hosts now that it is almost not worth setting up your own server unless you have a large to medium size company.
