ConvertKit Custom Sending Domain Setup

Setting up a custom sending domain can be a little daunting. It involves DNS changes and MX records, say what?! But it can be very beneficial when it comes to email marketing because it allows you to send all your emails via your own domain, instead of ConvertKit’s. And sending via your domain looks better to Google, Yahoo and all the other email providers. Looks better = better deliverability = higher open rate = better engagement with your audience.
 
As part of the setup, I will handle the emails back and fourth with the team at ConvertKit and all the DNS changes that need to happen via your hosting company. The process usually takes 48-72 business hours from when the domain settings are requested from ConvertKit.
 
If you’re confused by any of the questions, feel free to email me: melissa@melissathorpe.com and I will help 🙂

Convertkit Verified Sending Domain

  • The domain you'll be sending emails from.
  • Log in to your ConvertKit account, go to Account Settings --> Email and then scroll down you'll see "Optional: Verified Sending Domain". Click on "Verify your Domain" and then enter your domain. Enter the host and values listed below. You can then close out of that page.
  • ConvertKit is no longer recommending verified sending domains if you do not send at least 50,000 email messages per month AND have an average email open rate of at least 20%. You can still proceed, but be aware you may experience sending issues. You can read more here. If you're unsure what to do, feel free to explain your situation in the "questions or comments" box below.
