Unfortunately I deleted my WebApp, A domain which was purchased through azure portal by following these steps
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/custom-dns-web-site-buydomains-web-app/
Was attached with this webapp. Now that I don't have any access to domain's DNS, If I visit my domain it says
This page is parked free, courtesy of Azure
How I can get my domain back to me.
You haven't lost your domain, so there's no getting it back to you. The issue is that you deleted your web app, so Azure is providing a default landing page for your now-unused domain name.
If you create a new web app, and want to assign your domain name to it, you should be able to in the Custom Domains and SSL blade for that web app's configuration.
For example, here's the settings for one of my web apps. I'd see my purchased domain names under Managed Domains.

I have an Azure hosted React website running on a Web App Service. Let's call it mywebsite.azurewebsites.net
I have now purchased the domain name through Google Domains. Let's call it www.mywebsite.com.
The redirect is working fine. I type in www.mywebsite.com and I can see my website. However in the URL bar I can still see the address mywebsite.azurewebsites.net. I clearly want to see my new domain name. Can anyone provide any insight as to why this is?
You need to map an existing custom DNS name to Azure App Service.

I created an web app for a demo website in Azure. The domain name for this website was created when I created the app service "myapp1.azurewebsites.net". I'd like to use additional domain names using the same azurewebsites.net such as myapp2.azurewebsites.net. When I try to add this custom domain it tells me
Failed to add hostname myapp2.azurewebsites.net. Too many (2)
hostnames in the default DNS zone. Limit is 1
Is there no way around this or must I use my own custom DNS name?
For this you need to add custom domain in Azure web app.
For example : when I created the app service "myapp1.azurewebsites.net" and want to have additional domain names , you can go for custom domains like abc.com.
You can not have .azurewebsites.net as the custom domain of already existing web app as it is already owned by Microsoft Azure web app.
I have an APP that was awarded the gorunning.pt domain. It happens that when I call the gorunning.pt domain without the www everything works, when I add the www http://www.gorunning.pt/ I receive the page 404 application not found.
I've already set the DNS CNAME for the application of IP , also tried the url gorunning.azurewebsites.net defined by Azure , created a type A registration.
This is expected. Your DNS configuration is correct. However the Azure Web App's front-end doesn't recognize the www sub-domain as it is not mapped in the portal.
You will also have to map the www.gorunning.pt to your web app gorunning.azurewebsites.net in the Azure Portal. :)
From the dig web interface, it seems the domain has mapped to the Azure web app. However it shows 404 not found. As I know your custom domain maps to an empty web site, so the easiest way is deleting your existed web site then custom domain to the new web site again. If you still encounter the same issue, please submit a ticket via the following screenshot.
I have a multi-site application running on Azure Websites. When a user signs up, they pick a name for their application and they end up with "appname.coolapplication.com". Everything so far is working great within our own domain.
Our application needs to allow users to enter their own custom domain. For example, they want to view their application from "elsewhere.com" rather than "appname.coolapplication.com". How do I go about configuring Azure Websites to allow me to do this?
You don't. Per these instructions you instruct the customer to enter a CNAME record on their domain registrar for the Azure domain, and then it begins to work.
EDIT:
The CNAME only "just works" for Azure Cloud Apps. For Azure Websites, it turns out you must add the domain in the portal as well. I'd thus recommend switching your Azure Websites to Azure Cloud Apps to simplify the issue.
You can use the powershell api to add custom hostnames.

I've looked at all related posts in MSDN and stack overflow but still having difficulty finding a solution.
I am looking to map a domain and all sub-domains to my windows azure website. It is a reserved website instance. I am using Amazon Route 53 DNS manager and have mapped a wildcard CNAME to my azure sub domain, and created a redirect on the naked domain to the www. subdomain.
When I navigate to the naked root, the redirect kicks in and I'm brought to www..com, where I receive a 404 error from azure.
I know the wildcard CNAME is working. I've verified using MXToolbox. If I go to "Manage Domains" in the Azure web UI admin system, I can manually add "www..com" or any other subdomain (e.g. "helloworld..com"). Azure verifies it fine and after saving, I can pull up the website fine by navigating to that subdomain and my azure website loads.
Is there any way to add wild card subdomains without having to verify each one manually through the azure ui interface? My application is a SaaS that relies on custom user sub-domains to serve up their branded website and gain access to their account so I need any and all subdomains to map to my application.
Currently, wildcard domains are not supported as far as I know. At least on Windows Azure Web Sites. They are on the roadmap, but currently you'll have to rely on adding every domain manually.
See wildcard comment on "Configuring a custom domain name for a Windows Azure web site".
Another feature not yet available on Azure Web Sites is SSL using a vanity (your own) domain name. If you want full control of your site(s) you can use Azure Cloud Services instead of Web Sites. With Cloud Services you can provision certificates, domain names, and run multiple sites on the same instances using host header routing.
Anything you can do with IIS Management you can do with a cloud service.
You're a little closer to the metal compared to Azure Web Sites (but not as close as with a VM) and you get load balancing, scaling, caching, and other goodness. Visual Studio 2010/2012 has excellent deployment tooling. You will need to study up on Azure deployment projects from VS, bit it's not bad.
