π₯ NEW: Email Marketing Deep Dive Series
Hey everyone! You've been asking SO many questions about email authentication, SPF records, and "why won't my domain verify?"βso I made a whole video breaking it down step-by-step. Episode 2 is live: How to Check Your Email Authentication (SPF, DKIM & DMARC) This is the follow-up to the Sender Reputation video, and honestly? This might be THE most important technical thing you do for your email marketing this year. In this video, I show you: β
The 2-minute Gmail method to check if your authentication is working β
What SPF, DKIM, and DMARC actually ARE (in plain English) β
The #1 mistake that's killing your deliverability: Multiple SPF records β
Where to find your DNS settings (and what to do there) β
How to fix broken authentication step-by-step β
Why you should NEVER use your sending domain for other tools Here's the thing: Since 2024, Gmail, Yahoo, and Microsoft REQUIRE proper authentication. Without it, your emails don't just go to spamβthey get blocked completely. And here's my embarrassing confession: I accidentally broke my authentication a few months ago and didn't notice. My open rates dropped from 55% to 15% overnight. π
So yeah, this stuff matters. π― Quick check (do this right now): 1. Send yourself an email from your email platform 2. Open it in Gmail β Three dots (...) β "Show original" 3. Look at the top: SPF: PASS | DKIM: PASS | DMARC: PASS All three say PASS? You're golden. Keep doing what you're doing. Any say FAIL? Watch the videoβI'll show you exactly how to fix it.
