DKIM record for GoDaddy

How to add a DKIM record when DNS or mail is at GoDaddy. Real steps, then a live lookup.

GoDaddy is often the registrar and the DNS host. If NS records point elsewhere, these steps will not apply.

  1. Your mail provider (Google, Microsoft, a sequencer) generates the DKIM host and value.
  2. In GoDaddy DNS, add a TXT (or CNAME, if they gave you a CNAME) with that host — usually something._domainkey.
  3. Do not put the full hostname in the name field if GoDaddy already appends the domain; use the selector._domainkey part only.
