What is Internet Propagation?

When you update your domain settings (like pointing your domain to a new website or updating email records), those changes must spread across the internet. This process is called internet propagation, also known as DNS propagation.

During propagation, some people may see the updated version of your site or email setup right away, while others may still see the old version until their internet provider refreshes the information.

Internet propagation can take anywhere from a couple of minutes or as long as 48 hours.
