What Alex says.
Recently I had to do the same and host my data online using PostGIS &
Geoserver.
Depending on your needs there are a lot of options to do so.
As my requirements were not that high, I have chosen to host a server on a
VPS-cloud based service.
The most tricky part is actually to set up and securing your webhosting
environment.
This requires some knowledge of web/hosting beyond the field of Geoserver
and PostGIS.
As Alex mentions there are a lot of great step by step guides which will
help you to setup your web/geoserver host.
I for instance have followed this guide which was of great help:
