I’m looking to link a Zoho email address to my site. However, I need to verify the site. Two of the ways involve using DNS, which is not supported, and another is uploading an HTML file. I can honestly say I don’t know enough about this. Is it possible for you to help me accomplish this?

(other information and details relevant to your question)

All you have to do is download the file from Zoho and upload it in the htdocs/ folder and then wait to verify.

Thank you. I am very new to this, where do I find the required folder? Appreciate your help

There are 2 possible methods (with free subdomain)

  1. CNAME record:
    You have to copy the CNAME record from Zoho and go to Control Panel > Advanced Section > CNAME Records then add those records and then verify.

  2. Verify with file:
    Download the HTML file Zoho provided, then create a folder in /htdocs named zohoverify and inside that folder upload the file that you just downloaded. After that go to Zoho and verify.

Reminder: if you are using method 2 make sure your site is accessible with HTTP or it won’t work.

Note: InfinityFree has a security system that prevents bots using JavaScript. Zoho's bot does support JavaScript, but sometimes it doesn't work properly, so it is not recommended to use method 2.
