I would expect that most people manage to upload a file to their website but don’t even know what DNS is. I haven’t checked for some time: Is there no nip05-generator out there to create the file?

It’s not just one file. It’s easy to create the json, but there’s no explanation where the public-html folder has to be for an addon domain like in my case. And yes neither DNS entry nor this solution are something a regular user understands.

Yes, my main domain in that hosting account is anitaposch.com. One step above is public_html. So it’s: public_html/anita.link/.htaccess where I redirect from anita.link to other URLs. The well-known folder is now at public_html/anita.link/.well_known

Problem solved.

Unfortunately, that depends on the configuration software the hoster is using. In most cases there is some way to match a domain (or subdomain) with a specific folder. Others create the folders automatically.
