Domain name and web server change
December 13, 2007  |  by bsilvia  |  Announcements

Today’s news are: I bought the domain name: graphics-illustrations.com and I hosted it at Siteground.com (all of my domains are hosted there).

Now I’m thinking about possible problems before my DNS is activated:

  • what’s going to happen’ to all the links to specific pages from my blogs and other web sites?
  • how do I retain my visitors?
  • should I consider running my blog on blogger parralel to my new site at the same time for a while?
  • do I have to change my blog design and improve it?

I really don’t know what will happen after I transfer my blog to new domain… and I’m kinda’ afraid of the whole procedure!

When I started this blog I didn’t dream that I will have 2000+ visitors daily after only 5 months… and I didn’t consider any other domain name or web hosting but this one at blogger.com…

In the meantime take a look at bsilvia.com and see what’s happening!

  1. :) Thanks JD! I’m still working on it…

  2. Congrats on your domain name! I take it the transfer went smoothly; everything looks great! So cool to have your own domain name. Awesome!

  3. cant do much about it as blogger comes in between :( that is why i started blogger account and realized that it is not convenient in the long run. neway i would suggest putting a redirect , i think you can do it from the domain provider there is an option to forward , also chk with your hosting provider . It Can be i am 20% not sure , you can forward all the hits going to http://yourblog.blogger.com to your domain! give it a try chek options in your cpanel
