Hey guys! So I recently started a new online business venture, and I knew we would need a web site. To start off, I consider myself good with computers and a Windows power user (GUI stuff though, not much backend knowledge). After some research, for at least the beginning of my company, I decided I should run a Linux-based web server from my home network. I built a nice PC and installed Ubuntu on it, and now I am lost. I had trouble even installing google chrome. The only programming I know is very basic HTML. From what I gathered, I need to install Apache...? I also don't know much about networking xD. I definitely have bitten off more than I can chew. Is anyone out there willing to help me get my server up and running? And for the record, I have tried Ubuntu's website's guide on a LAMP server, but after running a bunch of commands on that guide, nothing really happened (it seemed like it installed, but I can't find the program).

Thanks for your help!!!!
