Create the DNS record and check it

- Not found: The record was not found. Check its name and value, then try again. Found: Domain verified. The status becomes Verified.
- Before that the status is Needs verification. Last checked says Not checked yet until the first check.
Automatic checks aren't running yet. Use Check now to check the record. A missing record is not found until someone chooses Check now.
