Have you try looking up your name in google?

Have you try looking up your name in google? I’ve never been too excited with the idea because my name is so common. “Jenny” can be easily found anywhere and “How” is just like the normal word we use everyday like ‘how are you’ ‘how’s the weather’, ‘how is your business’ and so forth.

So, it’s unlikely that the combination “Jenny How” will bring up anything interesting. Today I decided to look up my name in google:

See i told you so ;) But this caught my attention:

Jenny How is actually an artist who sings “You were marvellous, darling”. I tried to play the song at rhapsody.com, but it says it’s available for the USA only :(

Now, i look up jennyhow.com in go-daddy.com and it says:


Actually i haven’t really decide whether it’s a good time to invest in a domain of my very own, but this result is making me thinking about it off and on. Having a domain could mean that i can be in better control of my blog and i really wanted to be serious about blogging.

Have you thought about having your own domain, for those of you who are still using blogger or other free platforms? Would you buy a domain of your own in the near future?

Anybody know if it’s possible to transfer everything i have here in blogspot to a new domain? will i be able to retain my community members and comments?

Which hosting site would you recommend?

    Asalaimalaikum… Jenny How | cam to Islam… lol.

    you should have your own domain, ppl like you who is doingh bisnes on net should have At least one, mayb 1 for personal and 1 for your online bisnes.
    or you can even buy one then later add a Sun-Domain; i.e. jennyhow.com\bisnes or bisnes.jennyhow.com

    and don’t worry, allll contents in the blogspot can be Imported into your domain.

    quick grab one…

    I think its important for you to grab that name.. once its gone you will want it moRe!!..

    now, that you’ve posted it here though, I would be worried someone else will try to register it in hopes of selling it back to you at a higher price!

    By the way, a question here.How do you put what you have found in google on your blog ? I have seen a lot of people doing this. I want to try too.
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    Jenny,

    You should get your domain name. Even if you are not in internet biz, having your domain can boost your ego! :P

    I recommend hostgator.com. Very reliable. If you wan a cheaper one, can try tdothost.com. I am using it. just 2.95/mth

    You should get your domain now before it is taken by somebody else and you regret it.

    I use GoDaddy to register .com domains and if you search for a coupon they are about $7 per year.
