Well, it's probably not "easy", but you could set up a simple Linux server running Apache on a mediocre box (assuming you won't be getting a ton of hits per day). Then, use one of those free DNS redirectors that maps your changing IP address (assigned by your ISP), and then have your domain point to that?

Not sure about the particulars, but I did something like this a while back (mine was an ASP web/FTP server) which I could access anywhere.

Of course, you'd have to either build your site from scratch, or use an HTML composer software (there are several free ones).

So, aside from the PC (an older spare PC could be used), it'll be free...
