How to add a Dmarc record on GoDaddy

In this article, you will learn how to create a DMARC record for the application of the DMARC policy of none on GoDaddy.

One of the essential steps to complete the authentication of your domain is to add a DMARC record. You can find the necessary values in the popup window containing your DNS records.

To add the DMARC record, you need to go to the registrar where the domain was registered or to a dashboard provided by your GoDaddy account, specifically to the DNS zone of your domain name.

Create a new DNS record by following these steps:

1. Click Add New Record and select TXT from the Type dropdown menu.

2. In the Name field, enter _dmarc (as shown in the Name column of the systeme.io popup).

3. In the Value field, enter the DMARC record value.

• v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:youraddress@yourdomain.com

Example: If your email address is example@example.com, enter the following value:

v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:example@example.com

4. Finally, click Save.

Remarks:

1. You must have only one DMARC record in your DNS zone for authentication to work. If an old DMARC record already exists, delete it and keep only the new one you just created.

2. Once the DMARC record is added, email providers will generate and send a daily report. These reports will be sent to the email address specified in the rua tag of your DMARC record.

3. DMARC reports are sent in a raw format that can be difficult to read. Click here to learn how to interpret them. If you need further assistance, please contact our support team using this link.
