Question

Generally the fonts we are using in html or css, are declared with style/id/class like this font:"Georgia, Arial, Garamond;". Which means first it tries to find Georgia, if doesn’t find this then Arial and goes on with the next one. However I just want to know if there is any way to use a font by uploading on my hostserver.
(the font which i have already downloaded from internet)?

You can use the Font Squirrel web-site that will generate the CSS code for you.

Basically, you upload the font you want to use for your web page:

• and it will generate it with the necessary versions for cross-browser
  compatibility;
• also providing you with a file to download with the prepared CSS
  and the necessary font files.

See this working example!

To better illustrate:

@font-face {
    font-family: 'GiddyupWebRegular';
    src: url('giddyup-webfont.eot');
    src: url('giddyup-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
         url('giddyup-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
         url('giddyup-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
         url('giddyup-webfont.svg#GiddyupWebRegular') format('svg');
    font-weight: normal;
    font-style: normal;
}
