Adding DNS record

    While attempting to add @ as DNS record while logged in a pop up comes up stating
    Sorry only the owner of this domain name is allowed to edit the domain name information.
    Note: Only the domain owner can update DNS records, so we ask you to add this TXT record. Adding this TXT record won’t affect your current email or other services.
    How can we add this TXT record to show we own achieveconsultingteam.com?

    To add the record:

    Go to your DNS host (Change)
    Copy the values from the following table and add them at your DNS host.
    TXT records (Step-by-step instructions for adding a TXT record)

    TXT name
    TXT value
    TTL

    @
    MS=ms64042503
    3600

    Hi there,

    Can I ask where you saw that pop up notice? Was it in your WordPress.com admin area or with another service?

    You can add a TXT record to achieveconsultingteam.com by first navigating to My Site in the top left of WordPress.com. From there, select “Domains” and then the domain you’d like to add the record to:

    https://wordpress.com/domains/manage/achieveconsultingteam.com/edit/achieveconsultingteam.com

    Next, go to “DNS Records” and then “Add New DNS Record.”

    Further guidance on the above process, including handy screenshots, can be found here:
