Roll your own landing pages for domain sales

[dee]

Just thought i'd share really for anyone who's interested in rolling their own landing pages for their domains.

I've found this place :

https://qr-cloud.com/?referral_key=7ade21d6eeae4edc47e160dad9d1d66a

There is a referral in there for full disclosure. It's actually a QR code generating site, but they do all kinds of QR links. One of them being a landing page. Its really quick and easy to knock pages up, and then just forward to the link rather use the QR code side. Works really well and is really quick.

The big advantage for me however is the fact you can add a custom domain (or subdomain ) and have all the urls show up as your own. This also allows you to put adsense code on to mop up any traffic / tyre kicker clicks and potentially pay a bit if you get a lot of traffic to some domains. Bit of chat GPT content and your good to go. Because its a subdomain of an already approved domain on adsense, its already in place. You cant do that with other page providers as its not your domain and places like sedo etc make virtually nil in sharing.

Anyway.... thought it might be of interest to some !

As an example, made in about 5 mins

Interesting idea

FYI - Safari on my iPhone gave me a warning page / not secure connection, so guess that’s to do with the SSL maybe propagating later…

Interesting.... being forwarded by domainmanage, so possibly that ? Its all about an hour old, so as you say maybe propgating

Its because the SSL is mismatched.
https://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker.html#hostname=invests.co.uk

None of the common names in the certificate match the name that was entered (invests.co.uk). You may receive an error when accessing this site in a web browser.

Thanks . So would that be the domainmanage forward do you think ? I have the nameservers pointed there, then its forwarded.

It's because Domain Manage is not issuing parked domains with there own Certificate.
So I think you will always get this error, no matter how it is forwarded... Unless they start rolling out Certs for each parked Domain.

The certificate that is being issued is for domainmanage.co.uk only

Okay. So i guess short of setting up own dns etc no way of doing it correctly.

Would be fab if you could forward from nominet control panel.

I guess that also means everyone on domainmanage is getting these warnings for everything

Can you not do it via cloudflare? using their free certificate and forwarding

Yeah probably. It’s just the thought of dealing with nearly 400 domains that I already have on domainmanage is nit filling my heart with joy. I literally just got into cloudflare yesterday after Ryan’s suggestion in a dns conversation. I’ve literally only found out tonight on this thread that there’s an ssl issue with domain manage.

why can’t all this stuff just work lol. I was trying to streamline stuff , not make it more complicated.
