-
Host value: Under "Host," enter the first part of the "Host" field as it appears in your Lead Pilot CNAME Records (e.g. s1._domainkey).
-
Under "Value," copy and paste the corresponding "Value" field exactly as it appears in your CNAME records in Lead Pilot.
GoDaddy has its own CNAME help article available. Check it out!

Within the GoDaddy Domain Control Center
7. Under "TTL," leave it at the default of 1 hour.
Continue the process with the remaining CNAME Records
8. Once you've added all 3 CNAME records to GoDaddy, return to the Lead Pilot settings section and click the "Verify CNAME Records" button:
Once the records have all verified the Status will be changed from Pending to Verified, which may take a few moments.
