How to Create A Landing Page to Sell Your Domain Names

I've decided to sell 20 or so domains I have had in my portfolio for many years, but rather than use the service of a broker, I decided to instead create a simple Domain Name For Sale web page, costing me as little as possible.

I've decided to sell 20 or so domains I have had in my portfolio for many years, but rather than use the service of a broker, I decided to instead create a simple Domain Name For Sale web page, costing me as little as possible.

This is how I went about this mini project

  1. First thing I had to do was create a simple HTML webpage, which included details of the domain name and a way for people to contact me with offers. I done this by using the new  DuckDuckGo AI Chat, Mixtral 8x7B API. And for a first attempt the results were quite good. With a brief description of my requirements, the ChatBot provided me the HTML code, which I simply copied and pasted into a BBEdit page and saved as index.html.
  2. I included a disposable email address on the webpage, which I created using the Hide-my-email aliases function that is included with my Proton.me subscription.
  3. Next was to open a free account with Github.com which is where my HTML files will be housed. I created a new repository and uploaded the index.html file into the root directory.
  4. Using CloudFlare's Workers & Pages functionality, I then linked CloudFlare to the new GitHub repository and then deployed the page.

I know there is other easier ways, but I kind of liked learning how to do the above and also to get there at zero cost, apart from a little of my time. The one domain that is currently live is smallbusinesshelp.co.uk

If interested, I referenced CloudFlare's guide to deploying Static HTML.

I've also shared the HTML code below, feel free to amend and use yourself.
