Creating your own landing pages

[Arfy]

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.

RFQ.com​

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

just my $.02, your thought flow may take a different path..

Both your links didn't work for me. I agree with everything you have said. But I am going to add a small section as to why this is the domain they should buy. But I agree with you that by the mere fact that they have typed the domain into their browser, to see what comes up. Everything but For Sale and Contact Form are not essential. I would also like the make the page attractive, rather than ugly. I think that also helps.

..blocked some spammy Chinese IPs

I live in Asia but nowhere near China. I got a little bit further than last time. But got the same result. Now my avast software said both websites were infected with a virus, before the link failed So, I think you should forget about trying to fix these links just for me That's not because of possible infection, it's because I don't want to cause you anymore work.

strange... serving nothing there except plain html, css, png, google fonts and analytics

checked with www.virustotal.com and a couple other online scanners
..nothing found

avast often gives you a lot of false positives
maybe need to update the virus definitions

My database was up to date. But my version was not up to date. Updated. Rebooted. But still the same problem. I am aware that avast can give some false positives sometimes. Which is why I'm not to bothered about it. But something must be wrong somewhere. For it to give false-positive readings for both websites.

My landing page

For me personally. It looks SO dated. Look at the link in the first page of this thread. And compare.

How about these three landing page?

SellBTC.com
Agents.app
Matches.app

How about these three landing page?

Perfect, all three. Easy to see what's going on, easy to contact you. Some of the font is a little too funky for my tastes, but that's what makes us all unique, right?

@4pm no issues loading up your landers on my end.. stub must have some killer security going on or something..

Nice. Short and to the point. You really should have Google Recaptcha on it though.

Here is a simple lander, source code is in my sig.

Beauty.

Too bad I can't implement php where mine are hosted, else I would use this as a base for sure.

**edit

Corey,

you still need to make it more mobile friendly, imho

you can always check how a page looks on mobile via browser Developer Tools.

The above screenshot was made in Chrome / Developer Tools / Toggle Device toolbar / Iphone 5

Those are going to invite so much spam, it might make your email address unusable.

this is what happens when you are uncertain as to which font fits better...

QEQY

..then just cycle thru the whole pile!

 

[namemarket]

@4pm the title in the browser bar didn't give you a clue?....

That's odd, my browser bar only says this and nothing else: Not Secure balmain.homes

 

[Corey]

Made a few changes to Balmain.homes

Reposting my landing page: https://carprices.app

Apparently it's against the rules to mention links in your signature. So DON"T look there for the source code of my free landing page if you want to use it or something.

Made a few changes to Balmain.homes

Looks nice!
