What is DNS Propagation? Print

  • 0

Propagation refers to the time it takes for your domain to be recognized by Internet providers around the world. Some of our services including Email etc require your domain to have completed propagation.


If you are transferring a domain name to us, once you have updated the DNS servers it can take up to 72hrs before your update is fully recognised by all the servers around the world. This is called 'propagating'. Although we say 72hrs the period is often 12-24hrs or less depending on the network you are connected to the internet with.
