for a question that vague you would better do some reading first , search the forums for "no-ip.com", see the documentation links in the cp , especialy the apache one

Use a program to syncronize your ip to no-ip.com,
Open port 80 on your pc's firewall,
Change your host address in the control panel of A2T,
Then you can access your server via the internet.

I however would STRONGLY recommend you read up on security before going live with your server. Read up on firewalls, sql injection, DOS attacks, etc. The more you know the better off you'll be.

arod199113 I don't have all the information needed. I have no idea what firewall(s) you use (if any), If you have your no-ip account working etc. There are some basic things you have to know or learn to get things going. If you don't understand something search, or just ask. Everybody in support forums offers help out of their spare time.

If you don't want to do some research or if it's too technical, you might consider paying somebody to host your site on their server, there are many sites out there with low costs, and you wouldn't have to hassle with the details.

I say all of this in a kindly matter of fact manner. Strive to push your understanding I'd love to see you run a secured server it just takes time.
