I've just done the automated process through Mailerlite of getting my domain authenticated. It did it all for me, does this mean I don't need to do the DNS settings and the other stuff? Or does this still need doing?

Hey everyone! You've been asking SO many questions about email authentication, SPF records, and "why won't my domain verify?"—so 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: ✅ The 2-minute Gmail method to check if your authentication is working ✅ What SPF, DKIM, and DMARC actually ARE (in plain English) ✅ The #1 mistake that's killing your deliverability: Multiple SPF records ✅ Where to find your DNS settings (and what to do there) ✅ How to fix broken authentication step-by-step ✅ 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 spam—they 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. 😅 So yeah, this stuff matters. 🎯 Quick check (do this right now): 1. Send yourself an email from your email platform 2. Open it in Gmail → Three dots (...) → "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 video—I'll show you exactly how to fix it.
