newbie web question

[mnstr_trd_sd]

thanks for reading this post. i'm new to web design and i have just finished uploading my first site using fetch. now here's the problem.

1. when i type in my domain name (ie: domain.com) i still don't see my site. it still has the default under construction site that it came with from namesecure.

2 when i type my ip address (ie: ##.##.##.###) i see the site fine.

am i doing something wrong? does it take time to connect my site to the actual domain name?

i don't know too much about web design so any help would is appreciated.
thanks!

DNS needs to be set up
www.yourdomain.tld has to point to a webserver (a record).
you can try it here

If your host did set up the DNS records, it could take 24 hrs for this updated info to spread around the world.

so, check the a records, wait 24 hrs, check again.
If that fails you will have to give us your domain name

Good luck
