Quick Turnaround

9 domains, one seamless workspace.

A client needed Google Workspace configured across 9 separate domains — each requiring DNS record updates, TXT verification, and proper email routing through Namecheap’s DNS management panel.

They had initially hired another provider to handle the setup, but the job stalled. The previous provider couldn’t complete the DNS configurations correctly, leaving domains unverified and email routing broken.

I took over the project, audited everything that had been done (and not done), and completed the full setup from scratch — DNS records, domain verification, MX routing, and email security protocols across all 9 domains.

Status Completed

Previous provider couldn't deliver.

The client had already paid another provider to configure Google Workspace across their 9 domains. The job was left incomplete — DNS records were misconfigured, domains were unverified, and email wasn’t routing properly. They needed someone who could take over and get it done right.

  • 9 domains required individual DNS/TXT verification through Namecheap
  • Previous provider left the setup incomplete with misconfigured records
  • MX records were missing or incorrect — email wasn’t routing to Google Workspace
  • No SPF, DKIM, or DMARC records — emails risked landing in spam
  • Each domain had different existing DNS configurations that needed careful handling
  • Client needed a fast turnaround to get their team back to work

End-to-end setup, all 9 domains.

01

DNS Audit

Reviewed the existing DNS configurations across all 9 domains in Namecheap to identify what the previous provider had misconfigured or left incomplete.

02

MX Record Configuration

Updated MX records for all 9 domains to point to Google Workspace’s mail servers, ensuring proper email routing priority and delivery.

03

TXT Verification

Added Google-generated TXT verification records to each domain’s DNS zone in Namecheap, then confirmed ownership in the Google Admin console.

04

SPF & DKIM Setup

Configured SPF records to authorize Google’s mail servers and generated DKIM signing keys for each domain to prevent email spoofing and improve deliverability.

05

DMARC Policy

Added DMARC records with monitoring policies to protect against phishing, providing the client with visibility into email authentication results.

06

Testing & Handoff

Verified email send/receive on all 9 domains, confirmed DNS propagation, tested SPF/DKIM/DMARC alignment, and handed off full documentation to the client.

What made this setup bulletproof.

🌐

Multi-Domain Management

All 9 domains configured under a single Google Workspace account with proper alias and routing rules for each.

TXT Domain Verification

Each domain individually verified through DNS TXT records in Namecheap, confirming ownership in the Google Admin console.

📧

SPF & DKIM Authentication

Email authentication protocols configured to prevent spoofing, improve inbox placement, and build sender reputation from day one.

🛡

DMARC Protection

DMARC policies deployed with monitoring to detect unauthorized email use and protect the client’s brand across all 9 domains.
