My domain will not verify
Most failures are a missing or mistyped TXT record, a duplicate old record, or DNS that has not updated yet. Check the exact records on your domain's DNS page, fix them at your registrar, wait, and press Verify again.
Steps
- Open the DNS page for your domain in the editor and compare each record character by character.
- TXT: some registrars add the domain automatically. If yours does, enter only _nysroc-verify as the host.
- Remove old A records for @ and old CNAME records for www that point elsewhere.
- On Cloudflare use DNS only (grey cloud).
- Wait: usually under an hour, up to 48 hours.
- Select Verify again, or ask the assistant to re-run the domain check for you.
