GoHighLevel Tutorial ✅How To Easily Setup an Email Address in GoHighLevel

Introduction

This tutorial will guide you through the process of setting up an email address in GoHighLevel using a dedicated domain. With the recent updates, the setup process has become significantly easier, allowing you to authenticate your domain quickly and improve email deliverability.

Step 1: Access Email Services in GoHighLevel

1. Log in to your GoHighLevel account.
2. Navigate to Settings.
3. Click on Email Services.

Step 2: Add Your Dedicated Domain

1. Locate the section for Dedicated Domain.
2. Click on Add Domain.
3. Enter your desired subdomain (e.g., contact.yourdomain.com).
4. Click Add and Verify.

Step 3: Authorize Domain Connection

1. Ensure you are logged into your domain provider account (e.g., GoDaddy).
2. Click on Authorize Domain in GoHighLevel.
3. Follow the prompts to connect your domain. This action allows GoHighLevel to create the necessary DNS records automatically.

Step 4: Verify Domain Records

1. After authorization, you may need to click Verify Domain a few times as it may take a moment for the records to propagate.
2. Check for any verification messages to ensure all records are set up correctly.

Step 5: Manually Add DMARC Record

1. Go to your domain's DNS records in your domain provider's dashboard.
2. Click on Add New Record.
3. Select TXT as the record type.
4. Enter the following details:
   • Host: _dmarc.yoursubdomain
   • Value: v=DMARC1;p=reject
5. Click Save to finalize the addition of the DMARC record.

Step 6: Confirm Email Address Usage

1. When sending emails from your GoHighLevel sub-account, always use the dedicated domain email address you set up (e.g., yourname@contact.yourdomain.com).
2. Avoid using personal email accounts like Gmail or Yahoo for sending emails from this account to prevent them from landing in spam.

Step 7: Set Up a Custom Value for Your Email Address

1. Go to the Custom Values section in GoHighLevel.
2. Create a new custom value (e.g., L4L From Email) and paste your dedicated email address into the field.
3. Save the custom value.

Step 8: Use Custom Value in Email Templates

1. When creating email templates, navigate to the settings of the email.
2. For the From Email field, insert the custom value you created earlier.
3. This approach saves time and ensures consistency across all your email communications.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you can efficiently set up an email address in GoHighLevel, ensuring improved deliverability and a streamlined emailing process. Remember to always use your dedicated email address for sending communications, and consider using custom values in your templates to save time. Happy emailing!
