Okay, so I've set-up my website and everything on my VPS, but how do I make the website display when I visit e.g mydomain.com ? Currently I can only view it from a different computer via the VPS IP address.

When you have done adding new DNS Entry, you can use the Command line tool "dig" for this. It's allowing you to make DNS requests. Try this:
You should also check that you can reach the VPS in the right way. Use "ping" for this.
What Web server do you use?
so far

Code:
#dig YOUR.DOMAIN.COM @NAMESERVER
# Making a resolve request to Google's Nameserver of akendo.eu with only show the A entry.
