You can’t host any kind of email server on free hosting as I understand it

Because InfinityFree is for website hosting. It doesn’t provide an email server anymore, and because it’s shared hosting there isn’t a way for you to host an email server yourself on InfinityFree’s server. You can host webmail software such as Roundcube, but you have to have an email service already running elsewhere to connect to.

Hosting a web server costs a lot of money. An email server costs even more in general, because its doing a lot more work.

Infinity decided not to support that. end of the day it would have been a business descison.

The difficult part of email hosting is mostly IP reputation and spam management. Setting up an email server is easy. Setting up an email server that can be used by millions of websites and deliver emails reliably _without_ being a paradise to spammers is hard.

Url shortener services are allowed as long as they are used for personal use (if it redirects to something you don’t have rights to, it may get suspended)  
and anything related to cryptocurrency is not allowed as well

Cryptocurrency related content is prohibited on our hosting due to the high risk of fraud. A very high percentage of crypto related sites created on our hosting are scams. And since it’s not always so easy to tell if a crypto related site is fraud or not, we have decided to block it entirely.

Also, please understand that financial regulations can vary a lot between countries, so even if something is legal for you, it might not be legal for us.

Please understand that you will be held responsible for all links created using your URL shortener. Posting a sign at the door saying “don’t use this for bad stuff” doesn’t prevent people using it for bad stuff, and if/when they do, we may decide to take down your entire account.

> [@Mariamasan](#):

I’m not sure, you’d have to ask iFastNet about that. InfinityFree doesn’t have paid plans.

They are from Infinityfree’s partner ifastnet, if you press on one of those plans it will redirect to Ifastnet. Infinityfree has no control over Ifastnet’s premium plan neither infinityfree have a premium plan

Yes, you can create online tools websites and AI Tools (through third-party APIs).

And I’m telling you again: Please read the [Terms of Service](https://www.infinityfree.com/terms) to understand what you can’t do in this hosting

Since 66toolkit is written in PHP, You could host it here. But you should always check their official documentation about requirements.  
Remember you can’t self-host AI here, Infinityfree is not intended For AI hosting

You can’t run the artificial intelligence itself on IninfityFree’s servers directly, but you could host it elsewhere (like on a dedicated server for example) and host the website that ties into it on InfinityFree.

What language do you need to read it in? You could use Google Translate or DeepL to read it in your own language.
