How to Verify Your Domain for Facebook Business Manager

To verify your domain for Facebook Business Manager, use the following steps:

  1. Make sure that you’ve already added the domain to your HostM hosting account.

  2. If you’ve not already done so, add your domain to Facebook Business Manager per their instructions.

  3. Facebook Business Manager will provide you with a DNS TXT Record that you’re asked to create to verify your domain.

    Make a note of the TXT value that’s provided, which looks something like this:facebook-domain-verification=XXXXXXXX.

    Leave the browser window or tab open.
