My first step into setting up a wordpress blog

I had got loads of blogs with Blogger, but never one with Wordpress, so I went out and bought a old Wordpress blog.

Now I am looking for a hosting plan, preferably a free one to start off with, then will move to better hosting after the test.

This hosting of your own blog is a future plan for me, if this is goes well, I will start importing my blogger blogs to self hosting, as it does give you more freedom.

I will try to get this Wordpress blog up and running by this weekend, and will give you all the details on how it is done.

Any one got this scam postcard from CJsettlement.com

Recently I got a post card from CJSettlement .com, it was saying they're going to take CJ and Valueclick to court and if I was a member I will be liable.

And they want you to send your information to they and then you'll not be involved, The replay address is a P) box in America.

I throw it i the bin, It's a complete scam, and there's no website on cjsettlement.com, why don't these scammers just give up?

Dot biz is Dying

Have anyone noticed the drop in dot biz renewal when the priced gone up?

I did as I also let all my .biz dropped

That was a bad move from the .biz company

If your ranking is much lower than the coms/nets/orgs why the hell do you rise your renewal price and at the credit crunch?

anyway .biz will die so I now rather invest in .me .mobi .info .tv than .biz

my top ten list looks like this right now

.com
.net
.co.uk
.org
.info
.mobi
.tv
.de
.cn
.me

.biz is out of my top ten now

ILoveYou.me.uk is now on auction at Sedo

ILoveYou.me.uk is now on auction at Sedo

ILoveYou.me.uk

Great domain to make a statement, i.e to your gf/bf or husband/wife.

Nearly all extensions in the world are taken!

How to use custom domain from 123-reg to your Blogger (Blogspot.com)

Many had asked the question, how do you use both version of your custom domain directed to your Blogger's blog.

Many had failed, even I when I did my domainseek.co.uk, as all instructions you find doesn't work.

Take a look at This WineStar.co.uk and http://www.winestar.co.uk/

Now Here's How I did it:

1) Add a CNAME record on your 123-reg DNS, it should be www and Type : CNAME and the content should be ghs.google.com. <---- don't forget the full stop in the end or Blogger won't find your blog.

2) Then "important" delete the original www record, now your DNS setup page should look like this.

3) Go to "Web Forwarding" on your 123-red control panel, choose "Non-framed web-forwarding", any type in http://www.winestar.co.uk/ replace "WineStar.co.uk" with your domain. Like This :

4) Now wait about 24 hours, and the change your BlogSpot setting to this domain, and you now should be OK. You can ask me more questions if you still can't get it.
