I know it's not free but you can get a VPS for not a lot these days and installing virtualmin only takes a few minutes and takes care of just about everything you'd need to run a simple web host. I wouldn't want to set myself up as a hosting provider based off of just doing these steps as it wouldn't be secure enough for that but if you're just running your own sites it should be good enough.
Obviously it's a bunch of extra work if you just want a hosted wordpress site, not just setting up the server but maintaining it too (backups updates etc). If you just want that wordpress hosted then don't do it but if you think you might be able to use a server for a bunch of other little projects then give it a thought.
