you can just query a bp using the http API to check for your account– confused00Aug 10, 2018 at 16:11

I don't know what block explorer is updated in real time, but if you want to check your account, you can just type this in the terminal:
curl --request POST \
--url https://api.eosnewyork.io/v1/chain/get_account \
--data '{"account_name":"YOUR_ACCOUNT"}'
In regards to block explorers, the ones listed on r/eos are:

thanks for reply, i tried
curl --request POST --url https://api.eosnewyork.io/v1/chain/get_account --data '{"account_name":"mytestacct"}'but there is an error returned{"code":500,"message":"Internal Service Error","error":{"code":0,"name":"exception","what":"unspecified","details":[{"message":"unknown key","file":"http_plugin.cpp","line_number":478,"method":"handle_exception"}]}}But when i run this command ` ./cleos get account mytestacct --json` it works. I just want to to test if my account is successfully registered in blockchain or not?– shawnAug 11, 2018 at 10:05 -
i have read somewhere that while creating account, we have to pay something for CPU, RAM etc? But how can i get EOS balance in fresh node? I'm able to create account with this command
./cleos create account eosio tstaccnt Publickey Publickeydoes it directly creates my account on blockchain? or in my node only?– shawnAug 11, 2018 at 10:18 -
If you're using
cleos create account, then you're on a testnet witheosio.systemnot deployed yet. Once you deployeosio.system, you'll create accounts withcleos system newaccountand you'll have to delegate tokens for bandwidth. However, you'll still be connected to local net, and not to the mainnet. You need to provide the appropriate mainnetgenesis.jsonfor that but it's a whole different issue that perhaps we shouldn't expand too much in the comments of this question Aug 11, 2018 at 10:20
You could do a simple get account and see if your newly created account comes up:
cleos get account <YOURACCOUNT>
Regarding explorers, I quite like bloks.io
