Skylead Email Mastery: The Ultimate Guide to Setting Up Your Email Inboxes

🌟 Welcome to the Skylead Email Inbox Setup Guide! 🌟

Hey there, Skyleader! 👋 Ready to supercharge your email outreach? Let’s get your email inboxes set up with Skylead so you can hit the ground running! 🚀

1. Choose Your Hosting Platform 🌐

• Pick from the best: GoDaddy, Cloudflare, or Namecheap—top choices for purchasing high-quality domain names that keep your emails delivering smoothly!

2. Select Your Email Provider ✉️

• Stick to the reliable options—Gmail or Outlook—for seamless integration and top-notch performance.

3. Create an Account 🔒

• Sign up on your chosen hosting platform and lock in your plan with a credit card. This is your first step towards email outreach awesomeness! 💪

4.  Check for Blacklist Status Before Buying a Domain

• Before snagging that perfect domain, make sure it’s not on the blacklist! 🚫 Use a tool like MXToolbox or DNS Checker to check. This way, you can avoid future email nightmares and ensure smooth sailing. Better safe than sorry, right? 🔍

5. Buy a Domain 🛍️

• Log in to your hosting platform, go to the domain section, and buy your new domain. For cold outreach, choose a domain that’s different from your main one. Here’s a pro tip: stick to .com for the best deliverability! If your main domain is skylead.io, consider using variations like tryskylead.com or growwithskylead.com. This keeps your main domain safe while letting you handle outreach with ease. 🌐✨

6. Opt for a One-Year Plan ⏳

• Go for a one-year plan to start. If the domain gets blacklisted, you won’t be stuck with a multi-year plan. It’s all about smart resource management! 💡🛡️

7. Set Up Domain Forwarding 🔀

• After purchasing, set up domain forwarding in your hosting platform. For example, in GoDaddy, go to ‘Manage All’, find your domain, and forward it to your main domain (like https://skylead.io). Easy peasy! 😉

8. Create a Workspace 🏢

• Set up a brand-new workspace with Gmail or Outlook using your shiny new domain. Keep it separate from your main domain’s workspace and you can attach 10-15 domains here. This keeps your main domain secure while maximizing outreach potential! 🔐📧

9. Choose the Right Plan (Google Workspace) 💳

• If you’re using Google Workspace, start with their 14-day free trial to test the waters. After that, switch to the $6/month plan. Don’t get stuck with the $14 plan—they sneakily suggest that first! You’ll get all you need without the extra cost. Smart planning, right? 💰✨

10. Configure DNS Records 🛠️

• Set up your MX, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records according to your hosting platform’s guidelines. This step is crucial for ensuring your emails land in the inbox, not the spam folder!

11. Create Email Accounts 📧

• Within your workspace, create up to three email accounts per domain using real names. It adds a personal touch and builds trust with your audience! 😊

12. Add Accounts to Skylead ➕

• Time to connect these email accounts to Skylead. With just one click, sign in with Gmail or Outlook. Then set your sender names, campaign limits, and waiting times. You’re almost there!

13. Set Up a Custom Tracking Domain 🌍

• In your DNS settings, create a CNAME record for a subdomain like track.yourdomain.com and verify it in Skylead. This helps track your outreach efforts seamlessly!

14. Bulk Edit for Multiple Emails ✨

• Use Skylead’s bulk edit feature to apply the same settings across multiple email accounts. It’s a huge time-saver!

15. Repeat for Each Domain 🔁

• Got more domains? Just repeat these steps to set them up, and you’re good to go!

🎉 That’s it! You’re All Set! 🎉
