This could be a good move for them because I doubt they are making very much money with their $5.00 flyers in relationship to how many returning users they have. Details are here at ZDNET.

While this is not necessary, it is a good idea for the following reasons:

1. Search Engine Ranking – Having a keyword that descibes your blog in the web address can help boost your rankings a lot. Especially in google. Sites that are subdomains or directories are put at a disadvantage in search engines compared to domains.

2. Credibility – Having you own domain also looks professional, which give you and your blog more credibility.

3. Building YOUR OWN asset – This is what is most important to me. If you have a highly successful blog on blogspot you are building up an asset for Google and not just yourself. They also have control of your site’s fate instead of you, and I just dont like that.

There are lots of cheap hosting and domain registar around, you just have to shop around.

It is written by Dan Marques, and the blog is not only about blogging, but about many different areas of business. Very informative, worth a peek.

FTPplanet.com reviews:

  • “Stick to domain registration, leave hosting to the professionals. Downtime constant, no support. Might be cheap but you get what you pay for…”
  • “I sign up for hosting in Godaddy.com with 500Mb of space and 100 email accounts. When I am going to setup my email account, they are only 3MB each. It is totally usless for me. This limitation was not on the description of the plan.”
  • “They cost me hundreds of dollars in billing errors and refused to correct the matter. I was told they would have a supervisor contact me but never did. They were also rude and insulting. I will NEVER use them again.”

As shown they are less than quality. I have a special surprise for Blogging 4 Money readers. A Promo code for DreamHost.com a trusted and reliable domain registar and host.

  • The code is: BLOG4MONEY.
  • This code gives you a free $20.00.

So you can get an awsome webhost for GoDaddy prices! http://www.webhostingratings.com gives DreamHost a rating of 9.49 out of 10

  • “I was introduced to DreamHost when 2 separate clients of mine needed site redesigns… I “converted” about a year & 1/2 ago, and have been happier with each passing month! The account panel is easy to use, and allows me to help clients with their own accounts through my access. DH consistently keeps feature upgrades, including new software releases and security updates, on the forefront of their service. I’ve currently got about 90% of my client base hosting their sites with DH!”

Best of luck everyone.
