2. Propagation Time:
   • Changes to the A Record may take up to 24–48 hours to propagate globally.
3. Check DNS Propagation:
   • Use tools like dnschecker.org to verify the A Record’s propagation status.

Additional Notes: #

• Keep A Record Consistent:
  • Ensure all A Records for your domain (e.g., root and www) point to the same IP address.
• Backup DNS Settings:
  • Save your current DNS settings before making changes to avoid accidental misconfigurations.
