How long does it take for DNS to change?
| Any time you make a DNS (domain name server) change it takes around
24-48 hours to complete. During this proprogation time routers all over
the world are updating their cache. This causes your site to be up and
down randomly during the first 48 hours for different people at
different times. Think of dns like a zip code. If you don't put a zip
code on your mail the post office doesn't know where to send it.
Domains are the same way if they don't have the DNS the internet
doesn't know what server to send your request to.
