To gain insights into your email performance on Gmail, such as delivery errors and spam reports, you need to create a Google Postmaster Tool (GPT) account, verify your domain, and grant our team access to your data.
1. How to create a GPT account and verify your domain name:
To use the Google Postmaster Tool, you must have a Google Account. If you don’t have a Google Account, please create one.
Once you are logged in to your Google account, go to the Google Postmaster Tools dashboard. From this dashboard, you’ll be able to verify your domain name. To do so, scroll to the bottom right and click Add.
In the popup that appears, enter the domain to verify, then click Next.
A. Add record type TXT:
Copy the value of the TXT record from the popup so that it can be added to your DNS configuration.
In your hosting provider's DNS settings, scroll to Manage DNS records and select TXT from the drop-down list.
In the TXT value field, paste the verification code you copied from the setup tool.
Click Add record to validate and save the new DNS record.
In your GPT account, click Validate to complete the domain verification.
B. If you encounter any issues, you can add a CNAME record instead of the TXT record:
Enter your domain name and click Next. Then, click on Adding a CNAME record.
You need to create a CNAME-type record in your hosting provider's DNS zone using the Host and Target information that was generated.
Insert the CNAME Label/Host line into the Name field in your DNS zone. Retrieve the CNAME Destination/Target line and insert it into the Content field in your hosting provider's DNS zone.
Note: For the name field, you only need to copy what comes before the domain name.
Once the CNAME record is added, go back to Postmaster Tools and click Validate.
2. How to grant us access to your GPT data:
To allow our team to analyze your deliverability, you must add us as a user for each domain.
Access to domain data can be given as follows:
- Sign in to Postmaster Tool
- Click on the 3 dots, then click on Manage Users
- Click the + button in the bottom-right corner, then in the popup menu, enter the email address customers-gpt@systeme.io
