About DMARC records

First of all, a DMARC record is a TXT record published to the DNS for your domain, under dmarc.yourdomain.com, where “yourdomain.com” is your actual domain or subdomain. It tells the email receiver what to do when an email message fails DMARC authentication, and also where to send reports on email delivery statistics.

For more information on DMARC records, refer to: Everything about a DMARC Record.

Generate your DMARC record

Before moving on, make sure you have generated your DMARC record, using our free DMARC record generator.

Publish the DMARC record in Bluehost

2. Locate your domain

Now you will see the DNS section, where you can create a DMARC record for your domain.

4. Create the record entry

Then enter the settings for your DMARC record. Make sure Host Record is set to _dmarc, TXT Value is set to the record generated above. Click the Save button. Now you have added the record!

5. Check the published DMARC record

If you want to check the published DMARC record, you can use our free DMARC record checker. Note that the change you made in the last step might take some time to propagate in the DNS, therefore, if you can't find the record, give it up to 1 hour then retry.

That's how you add a DMARC record in Bluehost.
