Hey all,

Really interesting to see the different ways you all have gone about creating landing pages for your domains. There are definitely a lot of things to think about like design, customization, SEO, security (HTTPS), etc. and it can be difficult to figure out how to do it best.

I represent a new company called DomaHub, a platform for creating simple, clean sales/landing pages for your domains (you may remember us as the company who provides domain rentals, as well). We have recently re-launched our website and hope to serve domainers who are looking for a simple solution to creating landing pages for their domains.

We provide you with the tools to create your landing page with your own UNIQUE design and branding (not just themes/templates), on your own domain name, AND with security included (SSL certificates for all of your pages). We are still in the process of adding great features, so if there's anything you want included please feel free to share that with us.

If you are interested, you can go to our website, try out our demo, or learn more about our features. We offer both free and premium accounts!

I don't want to hijack the thread, so if you want to continue the discussion please see this thread in the advertising section.

My advice:
Do yourself a favor, host your form on secure server, i.e.
https://
or be prepared for high bounce rate (form abandonment).

Without https// you're guaranteed to loose many potential sales. Most visitors now a days just won't submit the form. In fact, popular browsers now display security breach notice for forms hosted on http:// protocol. This scares away many visitors.

The main reason I’ve favored doing my own sales sites over the years as easier to implement a $9 SSL across the board on 1 sales site domain...

yoursalessitedomain.com/domainnamehere then to SSL a script that makes 400+ domains load on 400+ individual urls.

I am using DomBuck for-sale landing pages. Example: http://startupprkit.com

A standalone free version of DomBuck for-sale landing page is available here -> https://wireddots.com/products/domain

I welcome all feedback!

It's a good start and can be made better by changing/displaying:

1. More color to be added to the landing page - it's too dominated by the dark lines. Additionally a more artistic script would bring more of an esthetic appeal;
2. Short of a complimentary logo, it's preferred to have a background font/theme that is a visual extension of the spirit/content/meaning of the domain;
3. The text ''If you would like to discuss the opportunity of owning ........, please fill out the form on this page.'' needs to be abbreviated to be more compact;
4. From reading the instruction to proceed with the domain it's not clear a potential interested buyer would be making an inquiry or offer by filling up the form/contacting the seller.
5. Make offer/buy now combo works better for conversion than the inquire/buy now option when presented on a landing page.

Great feedback - I actually agree with all of the points!

I'll implement changes this evening.

Thanks.

Nice link Jay.

Do you or other domainers use services like Instapage and LeadPages to create landers for their domains? Those two services are quite pricey just to set up some landers..

No started domaining in 2003 and little bit after decided doing my own sales sites was better than giving away valuable leads. I buy one $9 ssl which secures everything, market and landing pages. Last month decided to try a few hosted solutions, started with efty which isn't SSL yet and this month trying another hosted solution which is SSL for the market and landing pages. Debate will be do I stick with them or go back to my own servers. May stay as impressed so far with price and features as can't find anything missing from doing my own.

@Bram C. has great landers.

Ok, I have a question.
If one is using a sales platform like Efty, DMP etc, why would one not use the sales page of that platform as the landing page, instead of using a separate landing page? A sales page at least has links to ones whole platform portfolio which can be viewed by the visitor, where most of the landing pages I've seen being used, don't. (if one is not using an Efty/DMP/etc. type of platform, I can see why.) Just curious as to the benefits of separate landing pages to sale pages.

Mind sharing which hosted solution you are going to try?

If I understand correctly, a sales page is like a marketplace page? That lists all available domains in a table view of some sort?

So you are asking why would a domain owner have multiple landing pages to showcase each individual domain when he can just have a sales page that displays ALL of his available domains?

Let me know if I understood that correctly..

Something like that. If one uses say Efty, when a visitor clicks on a domain name it goes to a sales page about that domain where it can be bought. That page would obviously have links back to the owners main Efty page where his domains are all noted. So my query is, more so for Efty/DMP and other platform users, why not just use that sales page with the domain forwarded to it as a landing page, instead of adding the extra landing page.

I understand.

One reason I could see is that some buyers might only be interested in one specific domain and don't want to have to search through your entire portfolio to locate it. So having an individual landing page is more concise and direct. For example, if I just want to see what's on hawkeye.com - it could become visually confusing for me if I'm redirected to a sales page with the owner's entire portfolio.

But of course a marketplace-like sales page is a good way to display all of your domains as well as establish a brand for your store. Just different uses for different scenarios I think.

No that's not it completely.
Here if you go to eAutoLoans.com, you get a sales page for this domain only where you can buy it. But you can also visit or link to the main platform page if you want to see other domains or get more info on the seller. So, again if you run an Efty/DMP etc. platform, why have a separate landing page for that/each domain when a sales page is pretty much the same thing?

 

[alcy]

there is a totally free lander page taking mins to setup for all your domains
called empage.me

you get a big empage logo on top.. but its overall good for free service.. plus they let you setup buynow prices for your domains pay quick via paypal bin button.

this is not related to me.. so I am not promoting.. and support isn't best.. but u don't reallty need support.. no issues and simple to run.

I used it for while before

sadly, when above.com stopped letting people redirect for non above.com registered domains, I had to quit. cause they need masked redirect. even going through bodis is unmasked only.

speaking of which if anyone knows of a one place free service to do masked redirects from all registrars at once, let me know.

enjoy

I think you meant to link to HTTP not HTTPS for that link

Are you asking why does Efty/DMP have the singular landing pages or are you asking why do they have the multi-domain landing pages?

Fixed link. (new force of habit)

No, no. I'm just wondering why someone who uses those platforms uses also a landing page for their domain selling. It just seem redundant and a standalone page away from promoting their other domains.

I'm sorry. I'm having a hard time understanding your comment. Let me rephrase my question--

Are you asking why do users of Efty/DMP use the singular landing pages (e.g. http://www.blogpanda.com) or are you asking why do they use the multi-domain landing pages (e.g. http://www.namerockstar.com)

 

[hawkeye]

Now it's your link.

Yeah sorta.
Why use also http://www.blogpanda.com/ when you have http://www.namerockstar.com/domain/BlogPanda.com/ and can just forward BlogPanda to it. (and yes I see all the names on the bottom, but not all sales pages are like this with additional names. At least not in DMP.)

Haha, thanks for pointing out the typo.

Now I understand you, thanks for clarifying.

I think those users want to use http://www.blogpanda.com/ to capture any traffic that is going directly to that domain name. If you type in blogpanda in the browser and get redirected to a different page, especially one filled with other domain names, then you might get confused and decide not to buy or make an offer.

By limiting what the user is seeing when they navigate to your website, you can actually increase the likelihood of a sale.

Think of it like this, if you are a car salesman--and a customer walks in asking to see a Honda Civic. You don't show him your entire car collection--you'll just scare him away or confuse him. You show him the Honda Civic that he asked for (and maybe mention other car models if he seems like he's open to other options)

An interesting thing to consider here is--should there be more information available on that blogpanda landing page?

For example, with DomaHub, we provide traffic statistics (including Alexa data) on our landing pages

At this moment, I am using Efty's landing page template Kiffer.

Sample:
TimelessBrand.com

Same for me. Efty has worked out great for me.

No need for SSL.

This might be useful: https://blog.chromium.org/2017/04/next-steps-toward-more-connection.html

Come October Chrome is going to mark all pages with form elements as insecure if not over HTTPS.

SSL is the way of the future! As more and more people are becoming tech-savvy and as big institutions suffer from major security breaches (Equifax, anyone?) we at DomaHub believe that securing our landing pages should be a priority for any domain name owner out there. All of our landing pages are encrypted using HTTPS.

For example--here's a Premium DomaHub listing utilizing HTTPS

https://youretoxic.com

Nice. Just a heads-up that you form validation is trowing errors for all phone number I enter, including valid ones.
