Configuring DNS Records in GoDaddy
This tutorial will cover adding DNS records to GoDaddy. This guide will specifically add the records needed for email white labeling however the same process can be followed for Domain white label.
1. Click on Domain
2. Click on Manage DNS
3. Click on Add New Record
4. Inside of Spiro you will see the Type of Record you need to add.
In this specific example we will add a TXT record
5. In Spiro - Under Name Click the Copy Button
6. In GoDaddy - Paste this Under Name
7. In Spiro Copy the Value
8. In GoDaddy - Past this under Value
Set TTL for 1/2 Hour (this was default)
9. Click on Save
10. Let's Double Check
GoDaddy has also by default added in your host name to the pasted records. We DO NOT need your host name in twice.
We DO NOT want:
youdomain.com.youdomain.com
We just want
yourdomain.com
Please make the top selection that only has your domain 1 time!
11. Click on Continue & Verify
12. Now Finish Adding in ALL of the Records in Spiro to GoDaddy
Click Add new Records and follow the steps from above.
13. MX Record Walkthrough
MX Records are mail sending records, you may already have MX records on your domain however to increase deliverability of emails we need you to add the MX records in Spiro.
We will add MX records at a priority of 15 (please see below)
14. Copy all Records from Spiro and Paste into GoDaddy
For Priority please add 15
15. Once you had added all Records go back to Spiro and Click "Verify"
DNS records can take 24-48 hours to populate. If you receive an error in Spiro there can be 2 issues:
You need to wait a little longer for your host to populate DNS records
You have input a records incorrectly - please double check all records added
16. When Verification is correct you will be see a green checkmark in Spiro
