Hey Dev.to community! ๐ Iโm setting up my portfolio as a frontend developer transitioning into cybersecurity, and I need your help deciding between three hosting options for my "Coming Soon" page. Which URL is easier to remember/type and better for SEO? Here are my options:
-
umairshakoor.github.io/umairshakoor ๐
- Pros: Free, tied to my GitHub profile, great for showcasing code.
- Cons: Longer URL, subpath might dilute SEO.
-
umairshakoor.netlify.app โก
- Pros: Clean domain, fast redirects, developer-friendly platform.
- Cons: Still a subdomain, less brand control.
-
umairshakoor.vercel.app ๐
- Pros: Short, modern, optimized for speed and developer tools.
- Cons: Relies on Vercelโs ecosystem, no custom domain yet.
Iโve set up redirects so all point to my main site, but Iโm unsure which to promote as my primary link. Ease of use is key for sharing with peers and employers, and SEO is crucial for visibility as I grow. What do you think? Any experiences or tips? ๐ก
Looking forward to your thoughts! ๐
