Here is the text from the document I was showing in the video so you can have a checklist to follow to get your new email sender requirements set up based on the new rules from Gmail and Yahoo!

Step-By-Step! Here's How To Comply With Gmail & Yahoo’s New Email Rules For 2024:

Step 1: Verify your YourName @ YourDomain.com email address!

Step 2: Add your DKIM records to your domain's DNS zone via a Cname record

Step 3: Add your DMARC records to your domain's DNS zone via a TXT record

Step 4: Add your SPF records to your domain's DNS zone via a TXT record

Step 5: Get your domain name set up at postmasters.google.com and keep your spam rate below .3%!!!

By taking these 5 steps, your email marketing should not be affected by these changes and you should continue to hit the primary inbox with all of your marketing emails.

If you skip these processes, you risk having your emails go straight to spam, lowering your open rates and your click-through rates... Which would result in less revenue for your online business.
