I have a website that I wrote with react and pushed to heroku to host it while in development. The website uses the Google API -
When I get the API Key I need to specify the IP address that can get access to the api key. It was easy to put my own ip address in for my local server... but Idk what to put in for a website hosted on heroku. Can you help?
I created a domain with GoDaddy, and connected it with Digital Ocean.
I think the domain connected exactly to Digital Ocean.
In Laravel Forge, I made an app with that domain, and deployed my GitHub project.
The problem is, if I visit my website, it is showing just the "Welcome to nginx!" page. How do I make it display the code I wrote?
If you deployed your application in default directory, then setting up the domain DNS records should point to you server ip address and your website should be accessible from both server ip address and the domain.
But if you deployed your application in a different directory rather than the "default" you need to change your DNS records for pointing correctly to application directory.

I'm using the Flask microframework to run the Python back-end of my site with an SQLite database. It all looks fine and well running on my Ubuntu machine. But how and where can I actually host it online with a proper URL as in: "https://appname.io"?
Do web hosts usually provide Linux and SSH capabilities?
The 'proper URL' you describe is a domain name, and they can be purchased from many online retailers you'll discover when you Google it.
To host your site you will need an actual server host. Many retailers that sell domain names also sell web hosting, but not all. Essentially, every host will provide you with SSH, FTP, MYSQL and anything you may need to host your site. Linking your domain name is normally done automatically if you're purchase both your domain and hosting from the same retailer. However, if purchasing separately you will have to enter the DNS server information to resolve your host.

I have a quick question regarding hosting web applications. I've recently started getting into hacking so I just wanted to understand them a little more.
I am aware that to host websites you need to pay for a domain name, as well as a hosting service. So let's say you buy a domain from GoDaddy, and then you buy hosting from Dreamhost.
Let's say I'm making a web application in Node.js, then I need to buy a cloud platform such as heroku, correct?
So do I need to buy a domain, hosting service, AND a cloud platform in order to launch a web application?
Cloud hosting is just another kind of hosting versus stuff like Dreamhost.
You likely can't run something like Node.js on Dreamhost's shared hosting, but you could on one of their VPS/dedicated servers. Heroku's just easier for that sort of thing. You'd in most cases pick either Dreamhost or Heroku, not both.
I am taking control of a clients website for them from the previous developers.
I am not that familiar with A records and anything more than basic hosting set up, and a bit concerned I may break things so seeking some advice.
The mail is currently hosted on with the host easily, and I've been told the actual sites files are hosted on an external server which is controlled by the A record. Since the A record points to an external server.
I have set up a new cpanel account for the existing domain on my own VPS and would like to clarify that changing the A record IP address to that of my VPS would point the domain to my server hosting the new site.
Here is a screenshot of the existing DNS setup in the easily control panel.

Many thanks,

just change the ip of the A record if you want to change server
