> You’ve just added your domain to InfinityFree or changed your nameservers, but when you visit your domain, you’re seeing a “DNS Resolution Error” page, an error message, or your old website instead of your new hosting account. This is completely normal and happens because of something called DNS caching. How long should I wait? Most domains start working within 24 hours. However, it can take up to 72 hours for your domain to work for everyone around the world. This timing depends on factors out…

It looks fine because for a TEMPORARY basis, I have to use GitHub pages and a stupid static version. Do you guys have like a CNAME or any otherDNS record instead of nameservers because nameservers don’t really work

The nameservers work just fine.

In fact, you have not even set them up yet. You need to set up the nameservers to [ns1.epizy.com](http://ns1.epizy.com) and [ns2.epizy.com](http://ns2.epizy.com), then _wait_ 72 hours for changes to take effect.

> You’ve added a new domain name to your account, just changed your nameservers or recently modified some DNS settings. However, they aren’t working yet. You’ve discovered already that it’s not working yet because of something called “DNS Propagation”. But what does that mean? Introduction to DNS Before you can understand how DNS Propagation works, you need to understand how DNS itself works. So let’s start with that. Servers on the internet are identified by a set of numbers called an IP addres…

And to answer your question, no. You must set the nameservers to add your domain to your account.

Don’t remove them. DNS changes can take time to sync. Set the nameservers back, and don’t touch them. After 72 hours (~3days) you will be able to add the domain to your account. The more you add and remove and change them, the longer it will take.

In order to use IF, you need to set to correct nameservers.
