If you have not removed your website from your old host yet and have uploaded it here also, you should use a temporary index page here that is different in some way... it can be just a hardly noticable thing, maybe a small dot added somewhere on the page. After your domain name has resolved, just replace it with the correct index page (or remove the temporary dot) and safely delete the website at your old host.

To determine if your website is loading from a new or old host, the most reliable method is to check its current IP address using tools like DNSChecker.org or whatsmydns.net. If the IP address matches your new host's server, the migration is complete on that node, but DNS propagation can take up to 48 hours.

Check IP Address (DNS Propagation) Use a Tool:

• Go to whatsmydns.net or DNSChecker.org and enter your domain.
• Verify the A Record: Look for the "A" record type. This shows the IP address of the server currently serving your site.
• Compare IP: Compare this IP address with the one provided by your new hosting company.
• Analyze Results: If the map shows a mix of old and new IPs, propagation is still in progress.
