I hope this lesson has helped you to understand better why sometimes it can take time for your DNS settings to take affect and what is Server Propagation. Always remember, if you change a nameserver, it can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours for the change to take affect as the information change is passed round and round through all the servers in the world!
If you have any questions, I will try to answer everything I possibly can. Just post a comment to the training so everyone can see and share in the learning!
Thanks,

Does changing the DNS to WA (NS1.MYWAHOSTING.COM) means that my domain name is hosted by WA? By doing this does it mean that my domain name was transferred to WA?
Thanks,

Thanks for making this training, Eden. It's terrific!
I have just two bits of confusion remaining - one directly related to this subject and one indirectly.
1. How many servers are involved when a site is transferred from one host to another? Two? Right? The one it was hosted on and the one it moved to?
2. Assuming both hosts were also domain name registrars, which do you pay when it's time to pay your domain name renewal fee? (I'm wondering if the registration moves along with the hosting).
