Domains
Did Rain ask you to change some domain information and want to know the progress? This can take a while to happen because it has to be updated by all the DNS servers around the world (this is called “propagating”), which means it might be working for some people, but not others, and sometimes can take between 24-48 hours. We generally request either a CNAME or an A record value be changed. So to check to see if those changes have fully made their way onto the internet, visit https://www.whatsmydns.net, type in your website address, choose the appropriate record from the drop down next to it (A or CNAME) then click “Search”. You’ll see a list of of records from around the world, and if those records match the values we requested be changed, your site is updated.
