Alert! You must have purchased a branded domain first (i.e. www.yourdomainhere.com). \ \ We recommend using GoDaddy as it integrates with everything else easily. \ \ IMPORTANT: **Do not purchase the security upgrades offered when purchasing** your domain, as it will create issues when adding DNS records later!

After you've purchased your domain...

Then go to <https://admin.google.com>

After you've logged in, it'll look similar to this.

In the left-hand menu, scroll down to Account and click to open drop down menu.

Click "Domains"

Click "Manage domains"

Click "Add a domain"

Enter the domain you purchased here - i.e. 785nutrition.com

Then click "Add domain & start verification" - Follow the instructions to finish adding your new domain.

Use the dropdown menu to select where you purchased the domain (We recommend you purchase from GoDaddy)

Click "Continue"

It now wants you to add a TXT record to your domain's DNS records (don't worry...)

Click this button...

Find the domain you purchased and click on it.

Find where you can edit the domain's "DNS"

Click "Add New Record"

Go back to Google...

And copy the Value provided

Go back to your domain provider (GoDaddy in this case)

You will see a success message when the record has been added correctly
