Try this first

  1. Go to postmaster.google.com and sign in with a Google account you use or manage for your domain.
  2. Add your sending domain and verify ownership via a TXT record at your DNS provider. Same place SPF and DMARC live.
  3. Wait a few days for volume to accumulate. Below a certain threshold Google does not show graphs, so send your normal mail first.
  4. Check Spam Rate and Domain Reputation weekly. Spam Rate above a few tenths of a percent means inbox placement is dropping.

When to bring us in

If reputation sits at low or bad and you cannot pinpoint which traffic causes it, we can read DMARC reports alongside you and find the source.
