If you type vitalik.eth.link in your browser...

It loads Vitalik's Website!

Here's how YOU can also make YOUR .eth ENS name resolve to a web2 site! 👇 🧵

2/ First, you have to create a HTML file and upload it on IPFS

You can create the HTML using an IDE or a basic text editor (save it as a .html file)

Here's a basic HTML file that redirects to an existing website:

3/ Head to Pinata.cloud pinata.cloud to upload the file on IPFS

Create an account, then click 'Upload' and select your HTML file

Once it's added, you’ll get an IPFS CID (Content Identifier)

Copy the CID

4/ Next, head to the ens.domains app and go to your profile

Click 'Add/Edit Records'

5/ In the 'Content' section, enter "ipfs://" followed by the IPFS CID

Scroll down and click 'Confirm' to push the data to the blockchain

And that's it. Your ENS name is now linked to a website!

6/ ENS automatically generates the .eth.link extension for your name

So you can type yourENSname.eth.link and see your linked website open up

7/ A reminder:

By default, Pinata uses a public gateway to access your site on IPFS. This sometimes results in long loading times

If you want to make your site load faster, consider setting up a dedicated gateway:
