Bloggers: Why Use Blogspot and Lose Your Brand?
This is an infomercial. If you are blogging on free blog sites like Blogspot, Blogger or WordPress.com, this is for you!
If you are just like me, you like the freedom to blog, rant and shout anytime. Once upon a time, I was even so religious in blogging that I had at least one blog post everyday!
I started with Blogspot at http://rickysoo.blogspot.com, but later moved on to my own domain name and host the blog at http://www.rickysoo.com.
Nowadays with domain name and hosting account costing as low as RM100, do you wonder why many bloggers are still using free blog sites like Blogspot.com instead of starting their own PersonalBrand.com?
If you are one of them, you are in effect promoting for Blogspot instead of your own identity. Or you prefer to co-brand with Blogspot? Why not have full control over your own name?
Please register your own .com domain, and host your blog on your own server:
- More customization – You can better customize your own templates, plugins and features hosting your own blog instead of relying on third-party.
- More control – You can better control your files and folders having your own hosting account.
- More than just blog – You can do more than just blog. You can use software provided on server (WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, OsCommerce etc) and change it into a web site more than just a blog.
- Own domain name – You can promote your own .com domain name, instead of co-branding with Blogspot. You want your own address to come up in Google.
- Own brand – Having your own house, you have better control over what you want to communicate to people about you.
Worried about the move over to new domain name?
- Easy migration – You can easily migrate your blog posts from Blogspot to the new server. We can help free of charge if you need.
- Easy hosting – All necessary settings on new server are provided to you. You can start learning and using the new environment in no time.
- Money back guarantee – Try it out and get full refund if you find it difficult. But still keep your domain name!
