I have purchased my own domain in GoDaddy. I have a server at home, Windows Server 2008 R2 to be specific. I do not have a static IP address, however I have created an account in No-IP, have the DUC software running which assures that the hostname I was provided with will always point to the dynamic IP address at my place.
However, in GoDaddy they ask for an IP to specify where is the site hosted. How can I do this?

I moved my DNS to ZoneEdit.com. It supports dynamic DNS, so every couple hours a script runs on my PC to update the IP address with zoneedit. In 5+ years I've been able to host my web site and manage the machines on my home network without issue.

Yes, but you should check it out for yourself. ZoneEdit's help system will educate you – uSlackr – 2012-05-31T14:32:42.843
Great, I could make it work with DavidSchwartz post, but this would have probably been my alternative plan. Thanks a lot! – Soph – 2012-05-31T22:36:40.633
