Email outreach works only if your sending setup is built correctly. It\u2019s a foundation for good deliverability and long-term results.<\/span><\/p>\n

For many teams building a stable sending infrastructure for cold outreach causes a lot of friction.<\/span> This is why besides connecting your existing accounts, <\/span>Snov.io offers done-for-you Google mailboxes<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Using this option, you can <\/span>buy<\/b> domains and create Google email senders<\/b> in bulk directly from your Snov.io dashboard.<\/span><\/p>\n

Every account is on <\/span>Google\u2019s native infrastructure<\/b>, giving you top performance and deliverability out of the box.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"note\"<\/div>\n
DFY Google Mailboxes <\/b>are available on all Snov.io plans, including free Trial.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Here are the steps needed to set up everything from scratch.<\/span><\/p>\n

Create domains<\/b><\/h2>\n

First, you\u2019ll need to generate a new domain to host the mailboxes.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a general best practice, always create separate domains for outreach, so your main domain avoids the negative impact of cold emailing.<\/span><\/p>\n

To get started, go to <\/span>Email accounts<\/span><\/a> \u2192 switch to <\/span>Domains<\/b> tab and click <\/span>Create new<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Enter domain name<\/b><\/h3>\n

Enter your primary domain to the field. Snov.io will suggest a list of lookalike domain names you can choose from.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"learn\"<\/div>\n
\n

Make sure your new domain name relates to or includes your main domain. This keeps your outreach domain recognizable and helps avoid spam filters.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, if your main domain is <\/span>snov.io<\/b> and your cold domain is <\/span>hellosnov.io<\/b>, providers are more likely to treat it as a trusted domain.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

If you want your own unique domain, enter the desired name. The first domain in the list will match what you entered. If that domain name is unavailable or the TLD is not supported, you'll see it marked as already taken.<\/span><\/p>\n

Choose any of the suggested domain names instead or make sure to use one of the supported extensions (<\/span>.com<\/b>, <\/span>.org<\/b>, .<\/span>net<\/b>).<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Choose your domains<\/b><\/h3>\n

Green checkmark means the domain name is available. Select the domains you want to use.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"learn\"<\/div>\n
You can create multiple domains in bulk during one setup. When you start, we recommend creating at least 2\u20133 domains. This will allow you to distribute outreach safely across accounts with mailbox rotation and always have backup senders ready.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Which domain extension (the part after .dot) to use<\/b><\/p>\n

For DFY accounts, Snov.io supports these domain extensions: <\/span>.com, .org, .net<\/b> \u2014 all globally trusted and the most reliable for cold outreach.<\/span><\/p>\n

We recommend <\/span>.com<\/b> as the default choice. <\/span>The yearly cost per domain depends on the extension you choose.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Enter contact details<\/b><\/h3>\n

Fill in your contact details to register the domain in your name. This is required to comply with domain ownership rules.<\/span><\/p>\n

Enter your email, company name, full name, phone number, and address. Check the box to save contact info for future purchases to reuse these details next time.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\"tip\"<\/div>\n
Note:<\/b> Make sure you enter accurate details, not random information. The domain registrar uses this information to assign domain ownership, and incorrect details may result in domain registration issues.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Create and distribute mailboxes<\/b><\/h2>\n

Set up your mailboxes and assign each one to a domain. For each mailbox, fill in these details:<\/span><\/p>\n
