Newsletters provide a consistent way to stay in touch with your prospects, keeping your brand top-of-mind. Educate your prospects about your services, share successes and announce upcoming events. A newsletter allows you to connect directly with your audience. Your subscribers learn more about your organization's values, purpose, and offerings.
In order to start sending newsletters, we first need to verify your domain to optimize your deliverability.
What is a verified sending domain?
A verified sending domain allows you to set up authentication records (SPF, DKIM, and DMARC) with your web host. This tells mailbox providers like Gmail and Microsoft that you are a real business, and you have given ConvertKit permission to send using your domain on your behalf.
Technical Setup
- Click on Settings -> Newsletter Domains -> Create Domain
2- In your DNS provider, add a new CNAME record with the Hostname and Value shown in your DNS Settings
- By default the hostname is
pm_bounces. - For the CNAME record, add the value of
pm.mtasv.net
3. Generate your DKIM record - If you are unsure of how to do this, get in touch with the support team of the email provider you want to set up DKIM for so they can point you in the right direction. Each provider you send from will require its own DKIM record be generated and added to your DNS if you want to pass DMARC DKIM alignment.
4- Once you have your DKIM record, add it to your DNS as a TXT record
5- Now in Ubico, enter the details the details of your domain, return path and unsubscribe email
6- Click on Create Domain and voilà! You're all done 🎉
