This is the kind of videos that you would love to have the creator in front of you so you can give him a huge hug and invite him to an expensive dinner wherever he wants to Thanks steward it's incredible that you explain it 20 times better than Google itself! Keep grinding
I'll second that! This was a great video. It was so easy to understand. I'll be finally doing it tomorrow. Stewart has given me confidence. Many thanks!
Absolute diamond mate. Woke up as usual today with business and it appears my new website launch yesterday had messed something up. Had no idea what was wrong and couldn’t send a simple email. I’m back sending now, Appreciate it 🤝🏼
Thank you so much for making this video. Google is now requiring all Shopify stores to have Dmarc set up for feb 1st 2024, and the google information on this subject is very confusing for people like me with very little knowledge of this stuff. Your video was so simple, and worked great. You saved me and took a huge stress away from me.
Log into your google domains account. Under "My domains" select your domain. Now on the left side dash three selections down you should see DNS. Now select "Manage Custom Records" and follow this videos tutorial from here! @@ellysemcdonald1825
This was really useful, I was able to apply this to my Wix business email and website (gmail based email) in the UK. It’s worked perfectly, thank you. Now my emails have been going through to my clients without been rejected, before I had a high rejection rate which is really frustrating when you’re trying to run a business! Thanks! I also ran the test which you show at the end before and after applying the changes and the update was immediate.
Thank youuuuuu!!!! You have no idea how much this tutorial has helped me. I am a new small business owner and all of this is Chinese to me. I have no idea what I just did but I did it, and may the computer gods be satisfied.
Outstanding! FYI for those using Wix with a domain purchased through Google Domains: SPF and DMARK settings will be in your Wix account, not Google Domains account. DNS settings obviously also have to be updated first.
What an excellent video! Straight, clear, to the point. A lot of online guides are filled with fluff to buff the time, but this was direct, thank you for this very helpful guide.
This was so helpful. I kept getting emails to Gmail users rejected because of SPF issues. Tried to use the Google resources and they explained it where only a tech geek could get it. This explained it step by step and now everything is going smoothly! Thank you!
Thank you for this. It's very simple and to the point. It's worth mentioning that third party senders need to be configured in both SPF and DKIM records
what an incredibly helpful and well done video. you are a true pro. I've known I needed to do this do some time but didn't know where to start. thank you, thank you. all done 15 minutes later!
I found this incredibly helpful. I did have a little issue with needing to split my DKIM record as I didn't originally notice the full thing wasn't pasting but thanks to the tool I knew the problem had to be from the value and not that I hadn't input a DKIM record. If anyone is having issues, that might be something helpful to check. I simply then just used a tool that easily split the record for me and was able to get it to work.
This is what I was expecting from google, a clear and easy step solution to my problem. So grateful you were able to do what google couldnt and help me solve this issue thanks a bunch!!
Thanks Stewart. You're an absolute star. I've watched so many videos on adding SPF, DKIM and DMARC records and just kept on getting errors. I was doing something wrong, obviously, but your explanation showed me where I was going wrong. It's now sorted. Thank you so much. You have a new subscriber!
Hands down one of the best how to videos I've ever come across! Literally walked me through everything and the google tool at the end was very helpful as it pointed out some other potential errors! Kudos to you sir! Thanks so much! 🙂
This issue was causing me all kinds of problems and a huge headache, but your video was very helpful and I solved the problem in just a few minutes; thank you very much!
Hats off! Amazing and to the point video tutorial. And yes, even better than the explanation of Google itself with their blogs having hundreds of links. Thank you!
This was SUPER helpful and needed. Watched so many videos and none of them made the process as simple like you did. The question is why lol? Great work!
thank you stewart. i just subscribed! i just started my business and my emails have been going into spam folders of my prospective clients. your guide is the best in setting spf, dkim and dmarc! better than google! plus all your link to copy text and run checks. no problems were found! i can now start my email campaign again. ( bttw do you videos on email campaigns?) really apprciate your videos!
It's almost unbelievable that the official setup documentation from Google Workspace only provides information about the MX record and nothing more. After that, due to Google's strict email policy, emails don't arrive, and error messages follow. Why isn't this mentioned in Google's initial setup documentation? Many thanks for this RUclips video; it saved me!
Thanks for simple to follow instructions. There is nothing useful in Google Domains. I believe that the SPF and DMARC have a to be in place on 1 Feb for emails to be delivered properly. I think that I have probably done this before, but once every few years is not often enough to make it easy. Thanks again - I have subscribed to keep up with Your value content.
This was amazing... Thank you so much for your help 😊 On the Dmarc how do you setup if your domain has multiple emails... Do you have to create a record for each email?
Excellent brief, clear, concise video! Helped tremendously! One question: If you have several email accounts within, do you set up a DMARK record for each just changing the email in the Content portion for each to customize?
Quality video Stewart. I was just wondering, if you have multiple email accounts on one domain, willl the SPF, DKIM and DMARC carry over across all the accounts or do you have to do extra stuff for each account?
This video was excellent! Thank you. I've one doubt, what do we do when we want to use multiple emails to do marketing? Do we need to add all emails for DMARC record and if yes then How do we add all? I would really appreciate your help! Thank you once again ❤
Helpful video although I do have a question about DMARC What if we have multiple user emails? Do we need to add a DMARC record for each individual email?
I'm confuse! When you create an account and want to add your domain in the workspace, Google give you a record to add it in your dns settings in your intitial domain name provider. But i see you use cloudflare and i want to know where do you copy the cloudflare dns url: Cpanel or the google worskspace dns settings?
😀Thank you Stewart! Excellent video! You make it look so easy. I had my DMARC in the CNAME records, so I deleted it from the CNAME records and I put my DMARC into my TXT records. Is that correct? How long does it take to get verified on Google Admin Toolbox as my business email is still not verified after a few minutes of updating the records. Should I wait a few hours? Thanks for your help!
You're welcome! Definitely wait a few hours. Double check your records to see if you have included them all if you do not get verified within 48 hours.
It is an absolutely amazing tutorial! When I run the final check it says "Check was no possible" Do I have to wait 24 hours for all updates to manifest or what could be a problem? Thank you for your work!
thanks Stewart, I want to know which exactly that needs the authentication with SPF, DKIM and DMARC, is it the website domain or the Email hosting provider?
Very helpful! Especially since you cannot contact google in regards to issues like these. I followed this video step by step, but when I went to run the check at the end, it still was giving me error messages on the DKIM, DMARC not being set up. Does it take some time to reflect that those have been set up / added?
I hope you are able to see this comment. I really appreciate the video and plain explanation. I have my email through Network Solutions, I need to get an SPF record from Google and enter it into my Network Solutions DNS records. This is just confusing when I don't know what any of this means lol, wondering if I need to setup a Google Workspace Business account to verify my business's domain and emails.. Any answers appreciated, ty!
@@StewartGauld Darn it deleted most of my comment :) I did check with them many of times, they wouldn't help with the Google portion.. I did enter 1 record using the google SPF found online and here. But given your videos, I started a Google Workspace Business account and will be switching over, ty for the videos they're a big help :)
Hey Stewart, do you normally add a dmarc for every email address from your Google workspace account? Ultimately would you add a new dmarc every time you create a new email address in Google workspace?
I have a client with a domain at Squarespace and hosting at Namecheap (the domain points to namecheap). They setup gmail at Squarespace then we built their website on their exisiting Namecheap hosting package and redirected the DNS to Namecheap. So, the advanced DNS is not available at Namecheap in this scenario and I'm curious why the email is not working-I copied the SPF and DKIM from Squarespace to Namecheap's Zone Editor and it is NOT working. I do not have a DMARC (maybe that's the problem). Just wondering if there's an easy solution in this scenario, or is it just easier to transfer the domain? Thanks 👍
hey buddy, great video I have a question on the "DMARC Record" point, there I should only add the email account which is the admin in the google space or I should create a DMARC record for each of my domain's email accounts in the google workspace I had under this domain? thank you!
Hey bro, Thanks for the video man, i have just 1 more query - should I set my DMARC to reject or quarantine to maximize my chances of not ending up in spams?
This is the kind of videos that you would love to have the creator in front of you so you can give him a huge hug and invite him to an expensive dinner wherever he wants to
Thanks steward it's incredible that you explain it 20 times better than Google itself! Keep grinding
Hey Pau,

I'll second that! This was a great video. It was so easy to understand. I'll be finally doing it tomorrow. Stewart has given me confidence. Many thanks!
Agreed! Hats off to you man! Super easy/helpful to follow!! Some kid was trying to charge me $6k to do this
Agreed !!. I would pay for that dinner and add a kiss as well 😉
Sometimes I really don't know where I would be without RUclips. Thank you for this extremely brief and clear tutorial.
You are very welcome!
I was so overwhelmed when my email failed to deliver and the instructions given by Google were not clear at all. Thank you so much for this tutorial!
Your very welcome!
The instructions are so HORRIBLE. Like they're written by a robot.

Very helpful and easy 🎉

Helpful video although I do have a question about DMARC
What if we have multiple user emails? Do we need to add a DMARC record for each individual email?
Thanks! Just for one of your email in the account.
Hi Stewart,
Thanks for clear information.
Regarding DMARC setup where we enter email manually.
What to do if we have multiple email address?
Hey! Just the one email does the trick.
You are amazing!! Can you do a video on how to add these records if you brought a domain with shopify?
Thanks again! Sure! I'll look into this.
I'm confuse! When you create an account and want to add your domain in the workspace, Google give you a record to add it in your dns settings in your intitial domain name provider.

Welcome 🤗
Thank you for a very helpful and simple video!
One question: what should the TTL be set at for each record?
Hey,
Welcome. The same is how I show you in this video.
Amazing video! Question here: For the dmarc record do we have add record for each email we have against that domain?
Thanks! Good question, no just for one email only.
It is an absolutely amazing tutorial! When I run the final check it says "Check was no possible" Do I have to wait 24 hours for all updates to manifest or what could be a problem? Thank you for your work!
Thanks! Yes wait for upto 48 hours. However, it should be done within 12.
thanks Stewart
Any time!
would i have to add DMARK for every user?
Hey! No just for one users and it will verify for all under the domain.
thanks Stewart, I want to know which exactly that needs the authentication with SPF, DKIM and DMARC, is it the website domain or the Email hosting provider?
Hey!
Welcome. Email provider.
Very helpful! Especially since you cannot contact google in regards to issues like these. I followed this video step by step, but when I went to run the check at the end, it still was giving me error messages on the DKIM, DMARC not being set up. Does it take some time to reflect that those have been set up / added?
Hey!
Yes Google has failed to provide a resource like this. It can take up to 48 hours but should be much sooner!
Does setting the TTL matter. if yes, how long should we set it?
Yes the same as your domain.
what happens during the toolbox check if it says my domain check was "not possible"
Did you try after 48 hours?
great tutorial. I love it....straight to the point
Welcome!
