What is propagation?

Propagation is the projected length of time it takes for root name servers and cache records across the entire web to be updated with your website's DNS information. Because of propagation, not all visitors will be directed to your new name servers on your new hosting account; some visitors will continue to be directed to your old name servers on your old hosting account until propagation is complete.

The domain propagation process can take up to 72 hours, but usually is complete within 2-3. Once you visit your domain and see your new Bizzy Mama site, you know that your domain has propagated. If the domain hasn't propagated within 72 hours, you can try to clear your cache (http://www.wikihow.com/Clear-Your-Browser%27s-Cache), clear your cookies (http://www.wikihow.com/Clear-Your-Browser%27s-Cookies), flush your DNS (http://www.tech-faq.com/how-to-flush-dns.html), and/or restart your computer system.
