Why I do not shift to a custom domain ?


If you are seriously engaged in blogging, it is always recommended to have your own domain and preferably Wordpress hosted on it.Many Internet friends and some blogging professionals recommended me to have my own domain.Webtalks is making enough bucks for me to buy hosting and a domain for it.I'm a big WP fan and I too want to join the self hosted Wordpress community.Still there are few reasons that restrict me
  • Domain Age.With the blast of links everyday towards this blog (say thanks to templates), I believe Google will put this blog in the Sandbox.Since I'm currently on Blogger, Google counts the domain age of blogspot.com which well is a pretty old one(1999).
  • Time.As a student it isn't easy to come online everyday.Which leaves me with two alternatives.Either sell off my blog like Rishi did or keep the posts on blogger till I pass out.I'm not comfortable selling this blog as this is connected to my Google Account.So keeping it live on Blogger is the only option(Don't say that I can also delete the blog).
  • Hosting.Though many web hosting providers promise 0% downtime, still there is a risk.On blogger, I haven't yet encountered any downtime for this blog.Blogger currently gives undisclosed bandwidth to its blogs, so no problems how much traffic I receive when I'm absent
The shift will definitely take place
You read it right.I will for sure move  to a custom domain.All I can currently tell you is that you'll have to wait a bit for it.I believe by May 2010.Yes I know its long after.But I will continue posting on Webtalks when I'm free.I had already bought a domain (ashtech.info) back this summer.But afterwards I came to know (.info) domains are full of spam, so next time I'll buy a (.com) only
I'm currently looking for a good domain name (.com). If you have any thoughts, feel free to share them in comments.
During this period I will go through intensive studying as these 3 years will be determining for my career.If you are an Indian you would be quite familiar with IIT-JEE which is what I'm going to be preparing for.But still I need wishes from all you for cracking IIT isn't possible without your blessings.
Will miss you all.

Update

  Its been a long journey which began a couple of years back for me. As I had mentioned in the post due to academic reasons I had to quite blogging at Power of IT in lieu of preparations for IIT JEE, a competitive exam in India to get admission into the prestigious IITs at undergraduate level. With God’s grace, I was able to make it to the top 5,000 at the country level with more than 4,72,000 appearing for it, henceforth, I am currently pursuing my B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee which is the oldest technical institution in entire Asia. This institute has produced many world-class engineers and also the first problogger from India, Amit Agarwal, who runs Digital Inspiration blog is an alumni of this institute .Two years of complete inactivity did have an impact on my enthusiasm of blogging impact, but it steel feels great to publish a post and be back again. As for my current situation, my parents bought me a brand new Dell laptop via which this post is being published. Apart from that, along with my academics, I’m actively participating in hobby clubs relating to Software Development and various other workshops to enrich my knowledge base. I’m really pleased to see the encouraging atmosphere here at IIT for co-curriculars. As for my planning for my near future




• With so many new ventures, I’ll be engaged in learning new languages for web development and then working on projects


• Power of IT is not up for sale. This blog was buid for learning purposes, though it uses monetizing services of Google AdSesnse, but the sole reason behind it was just to get some experience.




Apart from that, Blogger has really grown up, The Template Designer tool is awesome(even though it has kick assed my template business) and stats widget makes the thing less messy in terms of code implementation for non-geeks. A sincere apology to all those mails shot at me for any error/ suggestion regarding my templates and which were un replied. I would be looking for your cooperation in the future.
