Creating your own landing pages

Recently, I received some inquiries on 2 of my domains through landing pages at a top registrar (won't mention which one as it isn't important). The offers were not too bad but I felt that as the inquiry was routed to a broker, after the 20% commission, the offer did not seem enough to warrant the sale. After a bit the deal went cold.

I couldn't help but feel that since the inquiry came from a landing page, that I could have easily handled this deal myself and kept the 20% commission as well as having a lot more time to interact with the inquirer and possibly strike a deal. Whereas the broker was most likely handling multiple inquiries at a time and allowed the deal to grow cold.

I wanted to try out my own landing page for one of my more premium domains and I wanted to get your thoughts on whether a landing page like this one is a good idea. If you could provide some feedback on what you think is good or bad about this lander and whether it is better to stick with a landing page provided by one of the big players like Uni, Sedo, Undeveloped etc. Landing page is below - it looks better on PC (moving background) but it still works well on mobile.


I personally like it as it is engaging, allows you to inquire immediately by clicking a button and filing a form but also gives the buyer information on the domain name and its potential if they wish to read on. Furthermore, I have chat functionality on there so if they have any questions that can chat to me in realtime. The form also goes to 2 of my email addresses so less likely that inquiries will be missed. But is this all too much?

Please keep comments to the point and this is about the landing page not the domain itself so do not start a side discussion about the domain.

Furthermore, it would be great if you could all share your own bespoke landing pages so we can all learn from each other on the best design concepts!

thanks,

CK

Hi All,

As the OP I thought i'd circle back and show you that I have simplified my new landing page for another domain I own massively after all of the feedback I received. Let's see if this one proves popular!

I like it. Short and to the point. But won't you get a lot of spam from the offer link?

why it looks ok i don't like at all how it's done:

...throws 2.2Mb in your face
of which 1.8Mb is javascript

1.8Mb of JS for a simple static landing page...

the page is making more than 150 requests (!)
that's more than enough for an advanced web app with complex functionality and a lot of client/server communication..
and it's just for a landing page with price, buy now button and a chat widget

have you tested how it loads on slow 3G?
open Chrome Dev tools and take a look

Make Offer form not loading with uBlock turned on..
nor are Snapchat and Email buttons
only chat is..

Escrow button... no one in his right mind is going to init an escrow transaction of $250,000 without first talkin with the owner and neg, or just simply making sure the name is still yours and is stil for sale. So not sure what this button here is for?

i would seriously reconsider your for sale landings strategy...
this monstrous beast can easily break any second when/if one of like 10 domains from which it's pulling its files from goes down or something..

why it looks ok i don't like at all how it's done
why while it looks ok i don't like at all how it's done // sorry for the typo
-----------


one more thing... the clouds are nice and all
but i'd really be more concerned about how good the name looks, not the animated background

it now looks like this:

why not repeat the name twice both in capital and lowercase letters using some good looking font and a simple illustration/image emphasizing thta the name is a real gem :) :

..and black on white is the thing you can never go wrong with :)

Still like it simple, clean, fast, mobile friendly and lightweight
..with the focus on the Name vs Design, Images, Effects etc.

@4pm - I like it for a cellphone. How would that scale up for a desktop machine?
