personal ssh website setup and hosting with iis

[arcolino]

hello all I am new to setting up a website. I think I have the basic understanding. I want to get familiar with the process and installing ssl certs.
let me know if I am on the right track. I need a domain name, I need a static ip if I want a https website? question this is just a question can I use my comcast static ip address, I plan and hosting the site in my IIS server. This will be all most no traffic website. Just doing to get more familiar with the process and ssl certs. I found a lot of resources to get it down with very little out of pocket. Part I am not sure about is the static ip address? thats why I am thinking my comcast ip address. I can host the website from IIS. let me know if I am on the right track. I would really like to make this as simple as possible thank you all for the feed back. so to go over steps again.
https domain name, static ip address (does it have to be static), create website point it to the domain name and the static ip address and host it in IIS? did I forget something? remember this is just a low budget exercise nothing fancy thx.

If your comcast IP is static and points to your IIS server you can probably use it yes. Is comcast your ISP? If so you need to make sure the IP stays static, and that they don't block incoming connections for web traffic (port 80, 443 etc)
