Answer 1

If you web server is up and running in your VM you just need to open the external endpoints now.

From Azure portal >> Navigate to your VM >> Endpoints >> Add >> Type name, port and select protocol

For you custom domain, you have to go to godaddy dns manager and add a new host (A) entry pointing to your VM public ip.

Also make sure windows firewall is not blocking connections.
