I added a custom domain from Oman tel domain provider and I added the values for A, TXT and CNAME records correctly but when I click on “verify Domain” : it says Unable to verifv domain - please check the value of your verification key ou check whether the TXT record has propagated"
You need to check the dns with a tool like MXtoolbox or any dns lookup tool, to see what’s propagated. Either your TXT hasn’t propagated and you need to contact your DNS provider to fix that, or you may have created it incorrectly.
My domain is hipetco.om
I just check with MXtoolbox and found 8 problems. Please check screenshot below.

I really appreciate your help! Could you tell me what’s the problem come from?
Check https://www.hipetco.om, with the s and the www.
That .om extension is going to cost you a ton of traffic loss if the site is meant to be global. I saw .com initially, especially with the co.om. it’s like an optical illusion.
Your main DNS config looks ok, I’m assuming this is a localized site.
id 50764, opcode QUERY, rcode NOERROR, flags QR RD RA

However I’m not seeing a TXT record.
You’ll want to double check that, and contact your DNS support.
I was able to verify.
My client gave the wrong website for managing domain and I just made the changes to DNS. I published the site but it doesn’t load. I also tried opening in incognito webpage but it still doesn’t work. Maybe I have to wait for a while.
Hi Karl, in my experience TXT records can take longer to propagate globally. Some registrars like GoDaddy are especially slow and flaxy with TXT records.
But you can see it’s propagating, it may take up to 48h, even 72h for some corners of the World.
Hi Michael, thank you so much for getting back to me - would that even though that site says it has updated it actually might not have?
Our domain provider is Route 53 do you have any experience with this?
Hey Michael,
I am having a problem verifying my domain even with the TXT record in. It has been over 3 days now and I am still unable to verify my domain.
