You only have to do this once.<\/p><p class=\"no-margin\">Inside Reach, you can use your Hostinger domain or an external domain you already own.<\/p><div class=\"intercom-interblocks-callout\" style=\"background-color: #e3e7fa80;border-color: #334bfa33\">Currently Reach only supports connecting one domain at once.<\/div><p class=\"no-margin\">If you still haven&rsquo;t connected your domain, it will be displayed right once you access the Reach dashboard, you simply need to <b>click on the &ldquo;Connect Domain&rdquo;<\/b> purple button and proceed from there. Below is a video example on how to achieve this:<\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9050\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2026\/03\/happy-case.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1786\" height=\"1130\"><\/p><p>On first login, the Welcome screen lets you connect a domain to Reach.<\/p><p><b>One-click connection<\/b> automatically:<br>\n&bull; Connects your Hostinger domain to Reach<br>\n&bull; Configures SPF, DKIM, and DMARC DNS records<br>\n&bull; Connects your Hostinger website<br>\n&bull; Optionally auto-fills your brand details<\/p><p>After the connection completes, a summary modal confirms what was set up. If you skip the welcome screen, you can connect your domain manually via Settings &rarr; Domain settings at any time.<\/p><div class=\"intercom-interblocks-callout\" style=\"background-color: #e3e7fa80;border-color: #334bfa33\">Note: DNS propagation for SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records can take up to a few hours. Wait for propagation to complete before sending your first campaign.<\/div><h2 id=\"h_b6efcbcd1f\">Connecting an external domain to Hostinger Reach<\/h2><p>Enter your external domain directly on the Welcome screen. Reach will:<\/p><ol>\n<li>Trigger domain ownership verification.<\/li>\n<li>Attempt to scrape brand details from the domain.<\/li>\n<li>Guide you to the domain settings page (via an onboarding toast) to complete DNS verification.<\/li>\n<\/ol><p>If you skip the Welcome screen, connect your domain later via <strong>Settings &rarr; Domain settings<\/strong>.<\/p><h2 id=\"h_6821b550c1\">In case you already have your domain connected with Hostinger Reach:<\/h2><ol>\n<li>\n<p class=\"no-margin\">Click on your business name and select <b>Profile settings<\/b>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"intercom-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2025\/06\/8e2ce4ed-4748-4ec2-a55b-8c0383da58bc.jpg\"><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"no-margin\"><b>All of your DNS records<\/b> (SPF, DMARC, DKIM) <b>will be handled automatically<\/b>, and it&rsquo;s usually pretty fast.

Note: If you&rsquo;d like to get replies from your subscribers, use a sender email that has a mailbox.
