Em...

A question to the ones "in the know"..

(Slightly diverting from topic)

I registered the domain.
I've found hosting and opened account.
In order to link these two (that is- cause domain to point to my website that "sits" on host servers), I needed to change nameservers on domain registrar website.
Simple enough, but "propagation" of change (worldwide) takes as they say "up to 24hrs".
So whilst yesterday "checker" app on host website was telling me there is no access to my website yet, today it's saying "all good".

In the meantime I created a simple HTML file, a temporary website, and uploaded it to host server.
2 files, actually.
Lifecorridor.html (which name, realising mistake, I changed later to index.html)
And a PNG graphic file (pretty much sticker above) to be displayed on website)

Now..

Hosts "checker" is telling me all good.

And when I try to open website, I have alternating "site is not published" or "IP could not be resolved"

What the hell did I miss?
