How can I check if DNS has propagated for me?

If you're unsure whether DNS has fully propagated for you, you should check the IP address your requests are resolving-to. The easiest way to do this is to 'ping' the domain name from your local computers. On Windows, you should open a Command Prompt and on macOS a Terminal, and then type:


ping domain.com


Replacing domain.com with the website you wish to check. The IP address returned will show you which server you're reaching when typing that domain into your web browser. It's a good idea to check both 'www.domain.com' and 'domain.com', as each record will have its own cache.
