🌐 What is a Domain Name?
A domain name is a unique address used to identify a specific resource on the Internet, such as a website, mail server, or other online services.
For example, in our case, "Qomon" = Qomon.com is our domain name.
Why is Changing DNS Configuration Important?
Proper DNS configuration ensures that your online services, like Qomon, run smoothly and securely. It helps optimize your integrations and maximize the benefits of the platform.
Follow the instructions below based on your DNS provider, whether it’s OpenDNS, GoDaddy, or another.
1. Log in to Your DNS Provider’s Dashboard
Go to your domain host (e.g., OpenDNS, GoDaddy, etc.).
Log in to your account.
Find the “DNS Zone” section on the dashboard.
Now you're ready to update your DNS settings!
2. SPF (Sender Policy Framework)
What is SPF?
SPF helps to prevent email spoofing and ensure email authenticity. Qomon will be considered a reliable source by email providers like Google, Yahoo, or Microsoft.
If you already have an SPF (TXT) record:
Add
include:qomon.email
to your existing record.Result:
v=spf1 a mx include:qomon.email include:_spf.google.com ~all
If you don’t have an SPF record yet:
Create a new SPF record:
v=spf1 a mx include:qomon.email ~all
3. DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail)
What is DKIM?
DKIM ensures your emails are verified and trusted by the receiving server. Emails that do not pass DKIM and SPF tests are marked as "spam" or are not delivered by servers.
Create a new TXT record:
Name (Host):
api._domainkey
Value:
k=rsa;t=s;p=MIGfMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUAA4GNADCBiQKBgQCbmGbQMzYeMvxwtNQoXN0waGYaciuKx8mtMh5czguT4EZlJXuCt6V+l56mmt3t68FEX5JJ0q4ijG71BGoFRkl87uJi7LrQt1ZZmZCvrEII0YO4mp8sDLXC8g1aUAoi8TJgxq2MJqCaMyj5kAm3Fdy2tzftPCV/lbdiJqmBnWKjtwIDAQAB
4. CNAME (Canonical Name) for "Tracking"
Create a new CNAME record:
Name (Host):
tracking
Value:
tracking.qomon.email.
(Don’t forget the dot at the end!)
5. CNAME (Canonical Name) for "Bounces"
Create a new CNAME record:
Name (Host):
bounces
Value:
bounces.qomon.email.
(Again, remember the dot at the end!)
6. DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance)
What is DMARC?
DMARC works hand in hand with SPF and DKIM to improve the deliverability of your messages and the reputation of your domain. Overall, it provides an additional layer of protection against phishing and spam emails.
Create a new TXT record:
Name (Host):
_dmarc
Value:
v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:[email protected]
Wait 24-48 hours for the first reports to appear.
