FEA Create's built-in basic email marketing service, Lead Connector, offers users the ability to add a dedicated domain to send and receive emails from their own domain. This increases the likelihood that emails will end up in a recipient's inbox and reduces the chance of them being marked as spam.
To set up the dedicated domain, users need to add five DNS records. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do it:
Step 1 Navigate to your Email Services Settings
From your FEA Create dashboard, click on the "Settings" tab and then select the "Email Services."
Step 2 Click Add Dedicated Domain
Select add dedicated domain and then click "Add Domain."
Step 3 Add your domain
Type "lc.yourdomain.com" (replace "yourdomain.com" with your actual domain name) and click "Add and Verify."
Step 4 Add your DNS records
If you are on GoDaddy, Cloudflare, Google Domains, or Ionos, the system will automatically add the necessary DNS records for you. If you are using a different service you will need to add the five DNS records provided. There are two TXT records, two MX records, and one CNAME record.
Step 5 Verify Your DNS Records
Once you've added all five DNS records, click "Verify." It may take a few minutes for the system to verify the records.
If you see "SSL pending" in the beginning, click "Verify" again. It may take a couple of minutes for the SSL to be issued.
Once the dedicated domain is set up and verified, you can send and receive emails using your own domain. This feature is beneficial for increasing the chances of your emails being delivered to the recipient's inbox and reducing the chances of them being marked as spam.
