I have never placed anything on a web server.

i have a dynamic web project built in eclipse using servlets (using tomcat 7) that connects to a mysql database that is on a computer that is on my college network.

How would i go about placing this project onto a Web Server so i can access it from anywhere. If you could explain the best and cheapest option that would be great

what would be the steps involved to make this project go live?
