Domains and DNS

Domain not working after DNS change - what propagation means

DNS changes do not spread instantly across the internet. Records may still be cached by operators and devices.

Technical guides See hosting FAQ

When this matters

After website or mail migration, DNS propagation is easily confused with incorrect record configuration.

Why a domain may work for one person and not another after DNS changes: TTL, cache, delegation, A, MX and SPF records.

Practical checklist

  • check domain NS delegation
  • compare A, MX, SPF and DKIM records
  • take old record TTL into account
  • test from several networks or DNS tools
