    Changed the A record to existing website. How long does it take for changes to happen?

    I have a website already built.  I bought a domane name from godaddy, and changed the A record to point to the existing website.  Is that all I need to do?  How long does it take for these changes to percolate through the system and become active?

    Changes to the DNS usually take about an hour or two but can take up to 48 hours.

     

    Also make sure the domain is added in the settings where you have the website.
