 Since your IP number is going to change, you will need to be able to
update the DNS record(s) for the domain you are hosting pretty quickly.
Keep the TTL low on the www.yourdomain.com record for quick refreshes.

 One way to do this is to register with a registrar that allows easy
toying (easyDNS.com) or, get a free sub-domain at places like
www.dyndns.org, or even use dyndns.org to do your Primary DNS as it
support dynamic IP updating quite nicely with client programs that'll keep
you updated instantly.

 Then in your apache config, bindaddress * and namedvirtualhosting * or
whatever it is.
