DNS Propagation Checker

DNS is one of the parameters of an Internet site that, after changing it, does not change quickly to all addresses in the world. Indeed, after its modification, it can take up to 48 hours to fully propagate to all addresses around the world. The problem with this lack of spontaneity in changing the DNS all over the world is that it can cause the old version of a site to remain intact in some regions when it is already changed. To avoid this and to allow Internet users to experience the updates made to a site as soon as possible, informed site administrators use DNS propagation verification tools such as DNS Propagation Checker – Prepostseo. Through this description, you will find out what this tool is beneficial for and how you can benefit from it.

DNS Propagation Checker: clarification of terms

Before trying to understand the usefulness of the toolDNS Propagation Checker, it is worth elucidating the terms related to its name, in this case DNS and DNS propagation.

What is a DNS?

DNS is the abbreviation of “Domain Name Servers”, which means in French “domain name servers”. These servers control the domain name of a website as well as its email settings. They guarantee the maintenance of a directory of domain names and translate these into IP addresses. They can be thought of as the telephone directory of the Internet. Indeed, just as a telephone directory makes it possible to assign names to telephone numbers, the DNS allows Internet users to search for a website by its name, and not by its IP address which is essentially made up of numbers. For example, when you launch the search for the Prepostseo site in a browser, your request will go to the DNS and will indicate an IP address associated with it. Thereafter, your browser will connect to the server and show you the website you are looking for.

What is DNS propagation?

When modifying a DNS or when updating it, it can happen that it can take up to 48 to 72 hours before the change actually takes effect. This is called DNS propagation. On the other hand, DNS propagation is a term used to refer to the time that may be necessary for changes to be made in a domain name. If it has to be said otherwise, it should be remembered that a DNS propagation is the time required for all DNS servers around the world to come into compliance with new DNS updates.

Why does DNS propagation take time?

There are a number of reasons why DNS propagation takes time to unfold. Suppose the fact that a DNS has been changed, and that an Internet user asks to open this domain on a Web browser. It is clear that the request of this Internet user will not be directly honored. All ISP (Internet Service Provider) nodes will first need to check their respective DNS caches, to see if they have DNS information for that domain. This way new DNS won’t be able to propagate instantly. Besides, ISPs benefit from different cache refresh levels, and some will still have old DNS information in their caches.
