You cant turn off your computer and expect the server to remain on >.> The server runs off your computer. What you are suggesting is like turning a light on in your home and expecting it still to work if you cut the power to your entire house.

^ This.

If you want people to be able to connect 24/7, you either leave your computer on 24/7 or pay a company to host your server for you, so that it's not running off one of your own computers, but is up in the cloud.
