If you didn't add a sending domain during your sign up process, you can [add one now in the SparkPost app](https://app.sparkpost.com/domains/create) ([EU](https://app.eu.sparkpost.com/domains/create)). If you already added a domain, visit the [Domains](https://app.sparkpost.com/domains/list) ([EU](https://app.eu.sparkpost.com/domains/list)) page to find your existing domain and click on the domain to complete the domain set up.
Before you can send mail using your domain, we need to verify that you own it. Adding a DNS record to your domain is the recommended way to complete this verification. In the **DNS Verification** section you can find the TXT record Hostname and Value you need to add to your domain's DNS records.

If you are using a subdomain, we recommend you also add the CNAME record specified under the **Bounce** section. Top-level domains should skip this step and add a [custom bounce domain](#header-Bounce-Domains).

Once your DNS record has been found, your domain's status will change to "Pending". This means the domain is in our final review process which will verify that the domain meets [our best practice requirements](https://www.sparkpost.com/docs/getting-started/requirements-for-sending-domains/). This usually takes just a few minutes, but can sometimes take up to an hour. Once the review is complete, the domain will be ready to send.

To do this, visit the [Domains](https://app.sparkpost.com/domains/list) ([EU](https://app.eu.sparkpost.com/domains/list)) page and either add a new domain or edit an existing domain. In either case, **you will need to edit DNS records to set up your bounce domain**. Add the CNAME record with the value shown under **Bounce** and verify. DNS updates can take up to 24 hours to complete, but are usually available within an hour. Once verified the domain will be ready for use as a Bounce domain.

Signal Analytics, Events, and Webhooks help you keep track of your SparkPost account activity and email delivery performance. Metrics and events are both available visually and through the API, while webhooks offer an efficient way to have SparkPost push message events directly to your own app.
When you send an email through SparkPost, it emits a sequence of events so you can see when it's delivered, when the recipient opens it and clicks on links, and various related events. Here's a chart of SparkPost's major message events in sequence:
