Hit count: 274
We recently bought the domain: embarrassingnightclubphotos.com
7 days after accepting the transfer the domain finally transferred to our registrar and we immediately changed the name servers from ns*.netregistry.net
to amy.ns.cloudflare.com
and cody.ns.cloudflare.com
20 days after changing the name servers, the majority of tests show that both old and new nameservers are still being reported:
http://intodns.com/embarrassingnightclubphotos.com http://www.whatsmydns.net/#NS/embarrassingnightclubphotos.com
We are now ready to launch the new site but this issue is plagueing us as a high proportion of the traffic is still receiving the old nameserves and so hitting the old server.
You can tell if you have hit the old or new server as the old server has the value "A" for the meta tag "Location" and the new server has "U". (The old server just has an iframe too!)
I have never had this problem before - who is causing this and how should we go about reaching a resolution?
Thanks
