We've Moved

I have moved the blog to a standalone website and it can be found at http://www.brushwithextinction.com/.

See you there.

Week 6 –Learning how to blog - Choosing a Domain Name

Almost as soon as I had decided to go with Blogger.com, I started to question my decision. A post from ProBlogger.net on choosing a name for your blog certainly got me thinking about changing from a free hosted blog. The main reason for this is that I believe that professionalism and credibility are crucial to this project and having a website address of brushwithextinction.blogspot.com seemed to muddy the waters. Even though the project is starting with humble beginnings, I don’t want to appear amateurish. I want to create a kind of brand around the title of the project and having a domain of the same name would help to do that. Having my own domain would also enable me to have email addresses with the same domain name, which would add to the perception of professionalism and branding. I also know that I want to create a website that accompanies the blog that will have downloadable information about the Brush with Extinction. So, I have decided to set up my own website for the blog with the address of brushwithextinction.com and an accompanying website for the project under the pending name of the production company behind the project, wildeaselproductions.com. Now I just have to find a host for the website and a designer to put the website together.
