Hi all,

New to the community. I worked my way from total novice to actually have my website up and operating.
I did have a question I hope someone can help me with.
I made some changes on my page and "published" it. I'm on mac platform using Rapidweaver.
How long does it typically take for the changed pages to appear when someone or I visit my website from the time I publish it?
Thanks all in advance.

Published changes should appear immediately, assuming that you've uploaded the files to the correct location.

You may need to force a browser refresh to see them if your ISP or browser are caching the earlier results. Things to try to force a refresh:

Put a questionmark and some gibberish on the end of the url like this:

http://www.example.com?blahblah

Or, try including or omitting the "www" in the beginning of the URL (opposite from what you had visited before)

If before you tried
http://www.example.com
then now try
http://example.com

or vice-versa.
