How long does it take before my domain name works with your service?

Pre-sales questions > Domain names
For new domain registrations, your domain should be active within 24 hours (usually much sooner). For customers using an existing domain name, your domain should be active within 24 to 72 hours of updating your domain's name server with the HostBuddy.com DNS information.

After sign up, we provide you with a FTP address and Temp URL which you can use to upload and view your web site while you are waiting for your new domain to be registered or your domain's name server updates to be completed.
