Add a TXT record at GoDaddy
Where: GoDaddy → My Products → your domain → DNS (Manage DNS)
Steps
- Click Add New Record.
- Type: TXT.
- Name: _dmarc. For SPF use @.
- Value: paste the record.
- TTL: 1 hour is fine. Save.
Watch for
- Enter only _dmarc in Name; GoDaddy adds the domain. A name like _dmarc.example.com becomes _dmarc.example.com.example.com.
- There can be only one SPF record; edit the existing TXT that starts with v=spf1.
Screens change from time to time; if yours differs, GoDaddy’s own help is the authority. When the record is in, check it with the DMARC checker; DNS changes can take a few minutes to appear.
