How to Set Up a Free Custom Domain for Your Notion Portfolio

In our previous guide, we covered how to build and launch a high-converting portfolio in under 10 minutes using Notion. However, sharing a default URL like notion.site/yourname-123456 can look unpolished on job applications and client proposals.

A custom domain (e.g., yourname.com or portfolio.yourname.com) builds immediate trust, improves SEO, and projects complete professionalism.

The good news? You do not need to pay for expensive third-party site builders or hosting services to map your custom domain to Notion. In this step-by-step continuation, we will explore how to connect a custom domain to your Notion portfolio 100% free using Cloudflare Workers and alternative free site builders.

Method 1: The Cloudflare Workers Route (100% Free & Customizable)

Cloudflare Workers allow you to run lightweight code at the edge. By using a free worker script, Cloudflare acts as a reverse proxy, taking requests from your custom domain and displaying your Notion page seamlessly—without changing the URL in the browser address bar.

Step 1: Set Up Your Notion Page

1. Open your Notion portfolio page.
2. Click Share in the top-right corner and select Publish to Web.
3. Copy the public link (e.g., https://yourname.notion.site/My-Portfolio-1234567890).

Step 2: Add Your Domain to Cloudflare

1. Sign up for a free account at Cloudflare.com.
2. Click Add a Site and enter your custom domain name.
3. Choose the Free Plan.
4. Update your domain registrar’s DNS settings to point to Cloudflare’s assigned nameservers.

Step 3: Create a Cloudflare Worker

1. In your Cloudflare Dashboard, navigate to Workers & Pages > Create Application.
2. Name your worker (e.g., notion-portfolio) and click Deploy.
3. Click Edit Code to replace the default script with a free open-source reverse proxy snippet (such as the popular Fruition script or lightweight Notion proxy worker scripts available on GitHub).
4. In the script code, set your configuration variables:
   • MY_DOMAIN: yourdomain.com
   • START_PAGE_LINK: Your public Notion link copied in Step 1.
5. Click Save and Deploy.

Step 4: Route Your Domain to the Worker

1. Go back to your domain dashboard in Cloudflare.
2. Select Workers Routes > Add Route.
3. Set Route to yourdomain.com/* (and www.yourdomain.com/* if applicable).
4. Select your newly created worker script from the Worker dropdown menu.
5. Save the route. Your custom domain is now live and serving your Notion page directly!

Method 2: Free Site Builder Platforms (Easiest Non-Technical Setup)

Optimizing Your Custom Domain for Search Engines (SEO)

• OpenGraph Preview Image: Choose an image thumbnail that renders automatically when sharing your link on social channels.
• Favicon Customization: Replace the default Notion icon with a custom personal logo or avatar.
