Planning to test 3 creatives per campaign angle, Now I am focusing on building the website, testing functionality, checkout etc.
Update #v1:

Choose a domain with words like:
Account Bulk Virtual Mart Shop Hub Bazar Dealer Digital Upgrade Cyber Site Byte Tech Web Camp Click Soft Desk Code Cloud Dot Coding Net Vault Sign Log Root Server Advertiser Agency Hub Identity Local Sector Lab Brand Branding glamour deal desk cart Attitude bargain store mart Trend Look Unique Retail Bag Discount Town Vault Stylish Style Market Corner Center Hub lab point Mall local gift shop city world

How I Choose Business Name:
Ask Gemini and Chatgpt: I am building a new digital products business website, use these word as prefix or suffix and add creative words that match with digital products business. Make domain is contains only 2 Letter, and Must available to purchase .com domain.
domain length should be maximum 15 character, Only English words domain.

After 30 Minutes of research I found 9 letter com domain.

Now lets Buy Hosting:
Choose Any Region You want, Choose Ubuntu or cloudpanel, Purchase hosting for 24hr month. I used hostinger coupon which give me extra 20% discount.

So total hosting cost is:
249.41 USD

But Hosting seems no longer offer .com domain free to claim, they are offering only .io .tech .cloud storage domain.

.io domain other registrar selling $50-$76 per year, So I grab one .io domain as free.

Domain:
As hostinger didn’t provided free .com, So I purchase my domain from cloudflare, Because cloudflare don’t add extra price on renewal.

1 Year .com domain cost me:
$10.46

Configure Cloudflare DNS & SSL Settings:
Added SSL/TLS Full (Strict) Mode. (this prevents redirect loops once SSL is issued on CloudPanel)

DNS:
I need to setup dns record, Added my hosting ip with A record at cloudflare dns, I didn’t make proxied.

*Note on Cloudflare Proxy (Orange Cloud vs. Grey Cloud): Keep it on DNS Only (Grey Cloud) during initial Let's Encrypt certificate issuance inside CloudPanel so domain verification passes cleanly without challenge blocks. Once SSL is installed, we can toggle the root @ and www to Proxied (Orange Cloud).

Access CloudPanel & Secure the Host:
Login to panel using https://YOUR_SERVER_IPV4:8443

Under Setting section, added my control panel domain like
control.yourdomain.com

CloudPanel Custom Domain has been saved.

Create the Sites Inside CloudPanel:
Now Added My Main Website at Cloudpanel, Created New Database with secure username and password. Installed Let's Encrypt SSL for main site.

Developer Tools:
Purchase 2x Codex Account $20 Each




Cost:
VPS Hosting: $249.41
Domain: $10.46
2x Codex: $40
2x SMS verification for Codex:$0.26
Total Cost: $300.13
