Technical Setup:
1. Buy 1 domain (eg tryinstantly.com
if main domain is instantly.com
)
3. Create 3 Email Accounts
4. Setup SPF, DMARC & DKIM
Email Deliverability: SPF, DKIM & DMARC
5. Domain Forwarding
6. Custom Tracking Domain
Now you need to set up your own custom tracking domain, which is your personal domain (or sub-domain) used to track opens and clicks in your emails. This is super important in order to protect your email deliverability.
If you do not set up your own custom tracking domain, a public tracking domain will be used which is much like sharing a toothbrush with everyone else sending out emails. This is obviously not good for the health of your domains and deliverability.
Just like SPF, DKIM and DMARC, your custom tracking domain can be set up with a simple DNS record entry in your domain provider’s settings.
Here’s how to set it up:
Go into your domain settings at your domain provider.
Add a new CNAME type record.
Set the value as prox.itrackly.com
Set the name as inst
Insert your custom tracking domain in Instantly, it will be formatted as inst.yourdomain.com
