How To Add Dkim In Godaddy (Quick & Easy) !
0Adding a DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail) record to your GoDaddy account is an essential step for ensuring your emails are authenticated and reach the intended recipients without being marked as spam. DKIM adds a layer of security by allowing the recipient's server to verify that the email was sent by an authorized sender and hasn't been altered during transit. This video provides step-by-step instructions to help you add a DKIM record to your GoDaddy DNS settings.
Step 1: Obtain the DKIM Key
Start by accessing the platform where your DKIM key is generated (e.g., GetResponse or another email provider).
1. Log in to your GetResponse (or equivalent) account.
2. Navigate to the *Profile* section and click on **Emails and Domains**.
3. Under the email address tab, locate your domain and click **Update DNS Record**.
4. Copy the *Host Name and **Value* (DKIM key) provided in the pop-up window.
Step 2: Access GoDaddy DNS Settings
1. Log in to your GoDaddy account.
2. In the top-right corner, click on your profile and select *My Products* from the dropdown menu.
3. Find the domain you wish to add the DKIM record to and click on **DNS**.
Step 3: Add the DKIM Record
1. In the DNS Management page, click on the *Add New Record* button.
2. For the record type, select **TXT**.
3. In the *Host* field, paste the *Host Name* copied from your GetResponse account.
4. In the *TXT Value* field, paste the DKIM key (Value) you copied.
5. Leave the TTL (Time-To-Live) value as the default or set it as recommended.
6. Click *Save* to add the record.
Step 4: Verify the DKIM Setup
Once the TXT record is saved, it may take some time for the DNS changes to propagate. You can verify the setup in your email platform (e.g., GetResponse) by using their verification tool. This step ensures that the DKIM record is active and working correctly.
By completing these steps, you will have successfully added a DKIM record in GoDaddy, enhancing your email deliverability and security.
