So, you feel like jumping on the blogging bandwagon after all? Whether you choose to write your blog merely to share your thoughts and experience, or if you are taking it one step further by monetizing your blog, you might need your own domain name.
You might already have a Blogger or a Wordpress account but writing a blog under your own domain is a different feeling altogether. It really helps in building credibility and heightening a sense of professionalism that exudes from your blog. Blogs are like Christmas presents. If you think you can churn out great content, why not package it properly and wrap it up with a nice glossy ribbon? When selecting a domain name, make sure you keep track of the goals and objectives you want to accomplish through your blog. You should also think of future endeavours and create a domain name that will not hinder future developments. For instance, if you’re writing about chocolate cake recipes, it makes sense to not limit your domain name to reflect ONLY chocolate cake recipes, in case you want to diversify and add recipes on say, cheesecakes.
Lastly, think about the length of your domain. Keep It Short and Sweet, because the shorter it is, the easier it will remain in your readers’ memory. Optimally, a good domain name should never exceed 67 characters.
