One of the main reasons why people update their DNS settings for their domain names is that they want their sites to be hosted by a new server. Whenever you change your DNS settings, the information you have changed should be distributed to the entire network of DNS servers all over the world, which is used to eventually update the DNS servers of your Internet Service Provider. This process takes time; it results in a delay from the time you have updated your DNS information and it being in effect throughout the world. This is what we call DNS propagation. The Root Name Servers will then receive this information. They query all “domain registrars” constantly all through the day, making them the main source of updated information that DNS servers gather.

Domain Name Server (DNS) is the one that is responsible for making the name of the site more understandable. This is how it works: Each website is only identified by their IP address. When you visit a site, the user agent or browser will ask the IP address of the site. The DNS works as intermediary who gives the site a simple name and links it to its IP address; thus, you can only see the textual domain of the site.
