A domain is something that you not only own (just like real estate), it appreciates in value and it will lead to much better rankings in Google. It is also an opportunity to brand yourself and create an authority within a niche.
SiteRubix.com sites are a wonderful starting point and testing ground for your business, but at some point you are going to want to consider moving to a domain of your own. As a PREMIUM member here at WA, you can host 25 of your own domains as well as free 25 websites on the siterubix.com domain (total of 50 websites)!
In this training I am going to be walking you through the process of transferring an existing website you have created (.siterubix.com) over to your own domain name.
Before you move through this training, you should first own your own domain name. You can buy domains and register them directly through the SiteDomains platform here at WA. Here are instructions on how to do this.
How to Buy a Domain Name With SiteDomains
There is no additional set-up after buying a domain name, upon purchasing you will be able to transfer your new website over to your own domain name using the Move feature.
The "Move" feature takes care of everything, including:
- Transferring all of the website files/themes
- Transferring all of your plugins
- Transferring the user accounts
- Redirecting all of your old website pages to your new pages automatically
- Making sure the transfer is SEO friendly
PS. If you have not purchased your domain name yet, you can do so here.
I can't afford to pay someone to go in to look at the inner workings of the site either.
Things that make you go hmmm?

In my experience 5 posts really isn't enough to start understanding if something works or doesn't. I'd suggest writing another 20-30-40 posts at least.
Also are you using Google analytics to track your traffic? Also, are you doing any keyword research? Ranking #1 is great but if your keyword gets 30 searches per month then you certainly won't see much traffic from it (if any at all).
it wipe out ALL my likes. =-( I really like seeing ALL the likes, because it let me know people were visiting my sight. Well at least I own the website now.
I decided to create a test siterubix website before transferring to my real domain name because I didn't want google to index me before I was ready. This may be my process going forward because searching for wordpress themes is somewhat of a headache!
