How can I test my website online (before it is public) and that no one can see it except me?
I know I can add a password but I don’t want that google indexs it (before it’s really public).

Depending on how your website is designed (PHP, Python, Ruby), you would have to establish a web server. The most typical configuration is AMP, which stands for Apache, MySQL, and PHP/Python. (Typically this runs atop Linux, but it can be run under Windows too.)
Ruby on Rails comes with its own built-in web server. Most Python web frameworks (Django, CherryPy, Pylons) do too.
