How to implement a DMARC record in Google Domains

This guide explains how to implement a DMARC record in Google Domains

A DMARC record tells inbox providers what to do with emails that fail SPF or DKIM authentication. Here is how to add one in Google Domains.

Steps
  1. Go to Google Domains and sign in.
  2. Select your domain from the list.
  3. Click DNS in the left-hand menu.
  4. Scroll to Custom Records and click Manage custom records.
  5. Add a new TXT record with the following details:
    • Type: TXT
    • Host Name: _dmarc
    • TTL: leave as default (3600)
    • Data: your DMARC policy
  1. Replace the example email in the DMARC policy with your own address to receive aggregate reports (for example, support@yourdomain.com).
  2. Click Save.
