    Hi friends

    Once the InterNIC announces that your domain name has been registered (or transferred, if applicable), it usually takes about 72-hours before it is active. All internet providers must update their records (DNS tables) to reflect new site locations. This is called propagation.

    Please share more about this
    Have a nice day

    Yes, domain name propagation takes 24 to 48 Hrs. But in same cases I have seen that it has taken 4 to 5 days. So, there is nothing to worry if there's any delay with the domain name propagation.

    48 hours the most, if you still don't see it then there is a dns problem.

    I think it can create problem if it is delayed more.
