    {

        [OperationContract]
        [WebInvoke(UriTemplate = "?name={name}", Method = "GET")]

It will be the URL at which your WCF application is being hosted and run at. You should have added that to the ServiceHost object of your hosting application.

Please make sure, that you will only be able to let your friend consume your WCF application if he can access that URL from his network too; if he's using the same network then you can give him localhost URL too, but if he will be accessing through some other network, then you will have to purchase a static IP address and you will have to redirect your traffic to that link.

Url will be http://localhost:8080/applicationname/Service1.svc?name=input just replace my applicationname from your application name on IIS

OR

Click on your application(left pane) on IIS which you have hosted, then click on Browse(right pane), then browse your service on any compatible browser.

Hi Sorry for the delayed response

Nothing is displayed on the page when I call the url

http://localhost/TestService/Service1.svc?name=ABC

I am hosting the service in IIS Server.
What I am missing here??? I have gone through the document shared by Upendar.

Since I have hosted the service in IIS, Do I have to use the ServiceHost

I am using the below WEB.Config file

<pre>

<configuration>
  <system.servicemodel>
    <behaviors>
      <servicebehaviors>
        <behavior name="mexBehaviour">
          <servicemetadata httpgetenabled="true" />
        </behavior>
      </servicebehaviors>
    </behaviors>
    <services>
      <service name="TestService.Service1" behaviorconfiguration="mexBehaviour">
        <endpoint address="http://localhost/TestService/Service1.svc" binding="basicHttpBinding" contract="TestService.IService1" />
        <endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
        <host>
          <baseaddresses>
            <add baseaddress="http://localhost/TestService/Service1.svc" />
          </baseaddresses>
        </host>
      </service>
    </services>
  </system.servicemodel>
  <system.web>
    <compilation debug="true" />
  </system.web>
</configuration>

As you are working with REST based service, change your web.config like below-

<configuration>
  <system.servicemodel>
    <behaviors>
      <servicebehaviors>
        <behavior name="mexBehaviour">
          <servicemetadata httpgetenabled="true" />
        </behavior>
      </servicebehaviors>
    <endpointbehaviors>
        <behavior name="endPtBehaviour">
          <webhttp />
        </behavior>
      </endpointbehaviors>
    </behaviors>
    <services>
      <service name="TestService.Service1" behaviorconfiguration="mexBehaviour">
        <endpoint address="" binding="webHttpBinding" behaviorconfiguration="endPtBehaviour" contract="TestService.IService1" />
        <endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
        <host>
          <baseaddresses>
            <add baseaddress="http://localhost/TestService/Service1.svc" />
          </baseaddresses>
        </host>
      </service>
    </services>
  </system.servicemodel>
  <system.web>
    <compilation debug="true" />
  </system.web>
</configuration>
