What is DNS propagation and why does it take time?
DNS propagation is the time for nameserver changes to spread across all DNS servers worldwide. Each DNS server caches records for a duration set by TTL (Time to Live). Lower TTL = faster propagation but more DNS lookups. Changes at connectquest.co.in typically propagate within 4–24 hours. Check propagation status at whatsmydns.net.
