I created a subdomain register service

[cipcip]

Hello ,

I first came across this article from Vercel: https://vercel.com/blog/wildcard-domains

I loved the idea, but I did not like that it used a lot of tech that costs money , so I created my own based on their open source code available at: https://github.com/vercel/static-fun , only by using React + Express + Sendgrid for email sending .

The service is hosted on a dedicated server that uses Plesk .

Domain: https://hej.lt

Example domain: https://example.hej.lt



Each subdomain has it's own password with the help of which you can login and modify your page. This password can be sent over your email for safe keeping . Every paged has their page hits tracked ( attention: page hits, not unique page hits , this will come in a future update ).

What do you think about the domain name and the service provided in general?

Thanks,
Cristian

Hi

what you're attempting is basically same thing that the folks at "it.com" are trying to do, by offering subdomains for sale and calling them premium.

centralnic has pretty much dominated this space for year.

something similar was tried with "new.net" domains years ago, so the idea has been around for a while.

all i can say is.... Good Luck!

imo...

Hello @biggie

I am not selling them , they are free of charge with no limit of subdomains .

Thank you,
Cristian

This can also be used to host your domain for sale landing page . Instead of the dummy form in this design, you can use a service to host your form and then embed in the site, such as google forms .

Template used in this sample is : https://codepen.io/NguyenKhacMung/pen/oNYarzq

Just make sure you keep a close eye on possible spam and abuse, services like this are very vulnerable to that.

looks like every subdomain has free ssl issues. Good dev project. Best of luck.

Can we change the nameservers of the subdomain ?

Try to add service that is different from it.com
"Don't try to be same, try to be special"

But it is different, you host a subdomain where you have a html editor and create your own page, it is not just another free subdomain provider.

And it.com was not the first one, back in the days, co.cc was the king of free subdomains

Yes, "The certificate is only valid for the following names: hej.lt, webmail.hej.lt, www.hej.lt"
@cipcip You should install a wildcard SSL for the whole domain or if you want to keep using free certs then create a new one for every subdomain.

It had one , i think it got renewed incorrectly, do you get ssl warnings ? I will check it out as soon as I get home

Just my piece of contribution. Use linux + letsencrypt + cerbot + auto renew wildcard domain ssl. I do this for my other applications.

Yes, the browser refuses to open any of the subdomain pages, not even gives the option to ignore and continue.

Lets encrypt was installed, don't know what happened
