Domain Registered!

So after much deliberation about what domain I wanted to use and trying several out, I couldn't decide which I liked...Then I remembered a previous WA lesson about your name is your brand and decided on one of my choices, checked and it was available so picked it and now I can attach it to my blog,so very happy with that.

NOW...during this process I learned something about a domain registrar where the domain I have chosen was registered and it had expired, is that they were going to charge me $88 dollars to retrieve it, add it to my account with them and then charge renewal on top, so well over 100 dollars.

With WA...I am paying a normal price which has saved me 80 dollars. Result!

The registrar who wanted to charge me over $100 ...Namecheap. I won't be using them again. So if you are in a similar position don't pay the extra

So now I can start building my blog. My future income and promote away.

This blog post was created on my phone, which I wont be doing normally but using the Image Studio which was easy enough to do and the whole process super easy.

Have a good day today
