Q. How much time does it take to activate my domain?

Ans. Domain names registered through our systems are activated instantly upon payment. However, DNS propogation may take upto 24 hours. If you have recently signed up with us for web hosting services using a domain name registered at some other domain registrar, your website may remain unavailable to some or most of your users till the DNS propogation has been completed entirely. Sometimes the DNS propogation takes just a few minutes and sometimes, upto 24 hours.
