While I would love to as I think I would get some good suggestions, being that it is a business idea too I would rather not mention it on a public forum

Namesilo for domain
Hostgator for hosting
Weebly for Design if interested. IIRC it comes free with hostgator

Doesn't weebly make you host your site with them?
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

The free version.
Also, as I wrote, I think Hostgator has some sort of weebly web design thing as part of it's Package

How does that compare to the 1 dollar a month deal from Godaddy?

I recently started a weebly site and then pointed a .com domain that I owned to it, so the .com is up and running.
Problem is, when I open the website in a tab in Chrome, that little icon in the tab is still showing a "w" (for weebly?).
How do I get to control that and put my own logo?

Attached a picture, complete with circles and arrows, just in case I wasn't clear enough in my explanation.

Thanks! I found that this morning, should've updated my post.
Weird part is I uploaded my icon, saved and published, but it's still not showing. Maybe it just takes time to update...

You need to clear the Chrome favicon cache.  Try a different browser, it should be updated.

I have a weird issue going on here - maybe someone can help me.

I have a website whose domain is registered with one company, but is hosted at another company. The website is currently down (since Friday), and the host told me that the A records need to be changed. I updated the A records to the proper IP, but for some reason it's not propagating (it's been 48 hours). I see the wrong IP on whatsmydns.net, but I don't see that IP in the DNS file at the host, or at the domain registrar!

Any ideas?
