WampServer

I want my friends to access my site hosted on my computer. They are to access it over Internet. How can I help them access it?

You need to setup port forwarding in your router. If you can't figure it out from the router manual, go to the forum for your router forum.

Thanks to all who help.

You should setup VH instead; then, you can type 'http://site1' to show the webpage and/or content of folder c:\wamp\www\site1, for example, 'http://site2' to show the webpage and/or content of folder c:\wamp\www\site2, 'http://site3' to show the webpage and/or content of folder c:\wamp\www\site3 ... in additions, you can add their shortcuts to custom WAMP Menu for quick access; check screenshot below

No matter within or outside LAN access, you need to setup Access, DNS, and VH; Access for permission to connect to your Wamp PC, DNS to tie Domain(s) to your Wamp PC, and VH to host multiple Domains/Websites/IP's and even you have only 1 Domain/IP, you should use VH to set it up w/ the site you want to show up first on top and localhost on bottom and others in middle if having more than 1 site; w/ VH, other PC's, no matter w/i or outside LAN, can access/see websites/contents of that particular folder set for that particular VH on your wamp PC. If dont have real Domain, just skip DNS guide
