People often ask me what I'd do differently if I was starting my blogging from scratch - one of the big things would be around choosing better names and domain names for a few of my blogs. One of the problems with accidentally becoming a Pro Blogger like I did was that things evolved without much strategy for the first year or two as I experimented. Ryan has a good post on choosing He then goes on to suggest four factors to consider in your decision. I concur with his thoughts. A name can become something that really lifts a blog to the next level. I strongly advise new bloggers to think up front about the implications of starting news blogs some of these questions: - what happens if this blog is very successful? Will the domain/subdomain/directory that I start this blog on look professional down the track? - does the domain name include my main keywords? (helps heaps with SEO) - is the domain memorable? What other factors are worth considering in your opinion when it comes to choosing a domain/blog name?
