ANSWER:
Name servers are the Internet's equivalent to a phone book. A name server
maintains a directory of domain names and matching IP addresses. The information
from all the name servers across the Internet is then gathered in the
Central Registry. Host companies check in with the Central Registry on
a regular schedule to get updated name server information, which makes
it possible for people across the Internet to access your web site. When
your domain is set up, information about your domain name is added to
our name servers. That information is then sent from us to the Central
Registry to be used by the other name servers on the Internet.
It usually takes about 48 hours before name servers on other networks
will be able to access the information after the Central Registry gets
it. This 48-hour period is referred to as propagation.
