Can someone assist with helping me thru the steps of creating a new web application via Central Admin. screenshots appreciated if possible.

Understanding the IIs, port, host header, How to choose an appropriate Database name and path are confusing as I'm new to this.

Ideal website name would be LG-Portal V2
