You can run your project by hosting in IIS

Step 1 : Build - > Publish Web Site

Step 2 : Publish it in the IIS server's folder : C:\inetpub\wwwroot

Step 3: Open IIS

Step 4: Expand the Root Node of the IIS in the left panel. In the Sites node you will get you published site

Step 5 : Right click on the your site and Choose Convert to Application:

Step 6: Now it will be converted to application Now Right click on it and choose Browse :

Done!

Follow these steps-

Open IIS Manager. For information about opening IIS Manager, see Open IIS Manager (IIS 7). For information about navigating to locations in the UI, see Navigation in IIS Manager (IIS 7).
In the Connections pane, click Sites in the tree.

Here you will find your site now click on browse, to browse your site.
