To host an Ember web application on Netlify, start by installing Ember globally using `npm install -g ember-cli`, then create a new project using `$ ember new embernetlify`. Initialize a local Git repository, add files to it, commit them, and link the repository to GitHub. Next, connect Netlify to your GitHub repository by authorizing access and selecting the repository. Configure settings as desired, build the site, and wait for Netlify to deploy it. With these steps, you can deploy your Ember application on Netlify, including continuous deployment, without manual updates or changes.
