Register for an unlimited hosting plan. Unlimited hosting plans will allow you to host many websites for one low price. This will allow you to piggyback host your friends' websites.For the purpose of this article (and because of its sheer ease of use), Host Gator will be used as an example (see Resources).
Log into the 'cPanel' (control panel) for his hosting plan. The cPanel can be reached by going to the URL provided upon registration. It will be included in an email titled 'Information about your hosting plan.'
Scroll down the cPanel homepage, a little past the halfway point. Under the 'Domains' section, there's an icon that has the letters 'www' with the addition symbol ('+') beneath the letters. Underneath, it says, 'Addon Domains.' Click this icon.
Enter the information of your friend's website, which you want to host on your hosting plan. Simply type in the name of your site under the 'New Domain Name' field. Proper format is http://yoursite.com (substituting the name of your real site for the words 'yoursite.com').
Press the 'Tab' key on your keyboard to move to the next field, Subdomain Name. This field will be automatically filled in for you.
Press the 'Tab' key on your keyboard to move to the Document Root field. This field will be automatically filled in for you.
Press the 'Tab' key on your keyboard to move to the next field. Choose a password for your new website. This will be how you access your site's files via FTP. Choose a strong, hard-to-crack password that includes letters, numbers and symbols.
Click the 'Add Domain!' button and you're finished. You are now hosting your friend's website.

How to Host Your Own DomainIn Feburary 2016 03,

Download a Web server. This is usually necessary since Windows doesn't come with a default Web server. Apache is a good program, but you can also download ABYSS, which is a free program that you can download (see Resources).
Read the documentation that is included with ABYSS to familiarize yourself with the program. This is only necessary if you've never used ABYSS, or if you do not have Apache on your system.
Visit the No-IP website (see Resources). Set up an account while you are on this page. Choose the domain name you want to use.
Download the No-IP client. Click on the Windows operating system download. Download the program and then install it.
Fill in the information the program asks for. Make sure the program runs after installing it. Once all of your information is entered, your IP address will resolve to the domain you chose, which should be something like xxxxxx.hostnameofserver.com (where xxxxxx is the name you chose).
