A private individual can : Rent webspace on a server, this is called a shared hosting account. You usually get to choose between windows or linux and generally get a control panel to install the most common packages like joomla, wordpress etc
You can also rent a vps, a virtual private server which is like having your own server. You personally remote desktop to the server and install and configure whatever software you need, eg apache web server or Windows IIS.
You can even rent your own server or even buy your own server and have it co-located at a data centre.
The choice as to which to choose is down to how much power and control you need for whatever you're doing. I've listed the choices above in order of power and configurability. The least powerful and configurable option is at the top. The order is also cheapest to most expensive.
