If you’re using a custom email address, it is best practice to ensure that your domain is properly configured for email delivery. DNS records authenticate your emails, making them less likely to be marked as spam. In this article we'll walk you through the steps of adding DNS authentication records to GoDaddy once our team has sent them to you.
🔴 This is a time sensitive process and the records will expire. Ensure you're ready to do this process immediately after the records are sent from our team.
Step-by-Step Process
Once you have received the authentication records from our team to your email, click View DNS Records and Instructions.
You will be directed to this window where you'll see the records you need to add:
In a separate window, navigate to your GoDaddy account where your domain was purchased. Sign in to your GoDaddy Domain Portfolio. Choose the domain/website address that you need to authenticate.
Click DNS to view and update your DNS records.
Click Add New Record.
Copy the SendGrid records that were sent to you by our team. Make sure to input the correct "Type," "Name," and "Value". Under "Name", you only need to copy the first part and not include the website address. Once all the records have been added, click "Save All Records".
Go back to the SendGrid records window (as seen in step 2) and click "I'm Done".
You can now let our team know you've completed adding the records, so our team can complete the verification on our end!
