Slight course correction

I already have a hosting account with Host Gator. I have a couple of sites on it--one for a book I wrote and another site that I abandoned several years ago (more about that another time since it is related to my new site and it does get traffic). Anyway, when I started here at WA I wasn't sure if it was better to host here or at HG. So, I followed the lessons here and set up my siterubix site. As I went along, I decided it was probably best for me to host the new site at HG (mostly because it makes sense to have all of my sites at one host and I didn't want to move the other two more fully developed sites). So, I spent today figuring out how to transfer my siterubix site.

First, I needed to decide on a domain name. Boy did I get sidetracked on this task! I posted a couple of requests for feedback on domain ideas here in WA (thanks to those of you who gave input) and I decided on www.RuralAttractions.com.

After buying the domain and changing the name servers to those given to me by HG (and adding an add-on domain in HG, setting up an email account, and installing and activating several plugins), I needed to figure out how to transfer my siterubix site to the new domain and redirect any indexed pages to the new site. Luckily I found guidance right on point! I found a video guide by a WA member (Welshy) here. And "Welshy" even chatted with me a couple of times when I got stuck. Another WA member (Steve--the guy who lead me toward WA) also responded very quickly to my direct message asking for input.

Thanks everyone for all of your help!!
