Your web host needs to have PHP installed (I assume you're not hosting on your own computer so you don't need PHP on that).

I would define a dynamic website as one that can change based on user input. A database (e.g. MySQL) is not necessarily required.

Look for a host that offers PHP scripting and a MySQL database as part of their package and then you have everything you need to start building your dynamic website.
