Frequently Asked Questions

Why aren't my new DNS settings showing up?

DNS changes can take anywhere from a few minutes to 48 hours to fully propagate across the global internet due to caching by internet service providers (ISPs).

What does an MX record do?

An MX (Mail Exchange) record directs email to a mail server. It dictates how email messages should be routed in accordance with the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP).
