hey guys,

i am going to start making websites and thought that it would be cool if i could make a website and host it on a network, not on the internet for everyone to see, but only the computers that are connected to the network are able to view the website. is that possible? if so, are there any tutorials that you can link me to? thanks!

Hi,
First of all, You should install IIS on your host server. More Detail for installing IIS[^]

Then you must add your website to IIS.

this looks really complicated. Is it possible for me to just make a server using c# and host the website off that?

No this is not complicated. if you want to host a web site on your computer you must install a http server like IIS or Apache and you must learn it. I think IIS is the best. You may learn very easily and you may find many information by using google. So I advice IIS.
