I can OFFICIALLY say I have a ".com" now! Drum rolll pleaseeee.......
MadameDreamer.com is born!
Beyond excited and very proud. I used GoDaddy.com to get my custom domain name. I kept my hosting at Blogspot (yes, that is an option). I would encourage anyone who is serious about blogging to get a custom domain simply because it means you own it and it's content can go where you go.
Adding my custom domain to my already existing blog on blogger was seamless and I could not have done it without the guidance of a tutorial I found while researching custom domains called HOW TO SET UP A CUSTOM DOMAIN IN BLOGGER by Dana Fox.
This tutorial could not have been any more precise (can't you tell by the title...). The author goes through every step on both GoDaddy and on Blogger and includes screen shots, what more could we ask for. Oh I know... COUPONS! So not only does she show you how to do it but she provides about 12 coupon codes that can be used on GoDaddy to get a discount. >>>>> Coupons Here!
I was able to use the one for 30% + Free private registration. Well, whats private registration? Glad u asked... Basically there's a site called WHOIS that registers owner information for websites, this information is available to the public. Includes things such as your name, address, email, etc. So in order to keep the stalkers away, I opted for private registration. Also, you do not need to pay for hosting if you already use blogger.
If you are blogging for business or just personally why not customize it. Make it your own and something you are proud to share with others.
Huge thanks again to Dana over at icanbuildablog.com! Her blog has quickly become one of my guiding lights on this journey. Click the link above to check out her blog, follow her, pin her... you're sure to learn a few things.

In any case, on the off chance that you ever begin to mark yourself and that domain name, at that point you have to take after these recommendations. Domain Whois
