static ip addresses are only available to business customers, you will find very few residential providers that offer a static IP.

Thanks

there are many guides on the internet, or youtube.

There are services such as duckdns etc, check out a few youtube videos for tips.

Have a look at https://www.dynu.com/Resources/Tutorials/DynamicDNS/GettingStarted

It's free and you don't get spam. Use option 1 unless you already own a registered domain name.

As @Karl-TalkTalk has said, there's lots of guides out there. You can always ask here if you get stuck.
