Okay friends. So the first thing you need to do is to go to AWS amazon.com, which is the Amazon Web Services website, create an account, I will not waste your time now by signing up, just click on Sign In. If you don't have an account, you will be prompted to sign up, just sign up endless website, and then log in to your account. Now in my case, here's my account. As you can see, I have Amazon SES already configured on my domains here, inside Amazon. Now when you log in the first time, you will go to the Amazon Web Services console Management Console.

Let's go back here to the management console, simply click on services and then go to simple email service. You can just search for it here, simple email service, click on it. And here we are. If you go to my domains here, as I showed you in a little You will find out my DOM is already verified. And I'm using it on my own email marketing system. Now to go from scratch, I will change my region he I will go with us.

And we will see everything is from scratch. Now I don't have any domain. So we can start together and configure everything from scratch, so many to verify and you don't mean. Now if you have a domain, you can just follow up with me. If you don't have one, you can simply go to GoDaddy or any domain provider and buy a domain. In my case, I will be using GoDaddy.

So let's go to domain search. And let's search for a domain. So let's search for a domain for me as an example this one it's available I will add to cart very simple continue and I will buy this domain for me without protection. Okay, continue to cart very simple just buying a domain. I will buy it for one year now. So it's $15 and click on complete purchase, of course, you will need to add your payment method and so on.

So just get a domain name so you can follow up with me. You may be asking what is a domain if you're a beginner? Or why do we use a domain name. Simply when you want to send an email, you will be using a from address like in my case, I will send you an email using support@hdk.com. So actually k.com is my dedicated domain. This is my domain.

So you need to have your own domain. In order to send emails to other using a specific domain name. You can't use a simple free gmail account or outlook account and so on. You need to use a business address that ends with your own domain name. So that we have a dummy simply go to my domains here and let's go I have this new domain, and let's manage the DNS zone. So now we have a domain name, we can go and verify inside AWS simple email service.

So let's go back to ICS management console and click Verify and you don't mean what is my domain. Here it is I will just copy and paste here. click on Generate decom settings. I will talk about decom later. Don't worry about anything now. Click verify this domain and here we are we have these records that we need to set up in our DNS zone.

Okay, so you can see the first record is the domain verification record. Simply I will copy this underscore Amazon CS without the domain name Ctrl C. Go to GoDaddy. I will add and you TXT record why tax simply you can see the type here is text. Very simple. And now paste in the host, Amazon ECS this hostname, you can see this the name, and this is the value, just copy it and go and paste in the value. So simple.

Now we configured the first record. Now go DKM record set in the same way, copy everything except actually Kate dotnet. Now we need to create a C named record, simply click Select c name and the host for this and just copy this key this value and paste here. Very simple. Again, we have a second record, copy it very simple. A C name paste to to get the value.

Point here save and now we still have a third value in the same way. Just copy it pays to get its value and paste in the points to section and save. Very simple. Now we have here the email receiving record. This is an optional record, you don't need to configure it. Now.

I will talk about the mail records MX record and receiving emails later on in the course. What do you have to know now that this record is optional, you don't need it right now. So forget about it. Click Close here. And just wait now for the verification. we configured our domain, we add our domain.

We set up our records now just wait for the verification from Amazon. Very simple. I think if you have any questions, I will be here anytime.
