We Are On WordPress !!!

by Simrandeep on May 1, 2009

First of all, I would like to thank Gagan for his regular support.

I was planning for so many days to move my blog from blogger to WordPress but I was not getting any good opportunity. At last I got hosting and domain name from Dreamhost for my geocities account. Thanks to Harsh Aggarwal for informing me about the great offer.

The most difficult part for me was selecting a domain name. All the good domains are already booked. It was very difficult for me to find a domain name for me. I searched for expired domain names but I was not able to find one there too. Then I searched it from domain name suggestion tools and at last got tricksdaddy.com

A lot of work is still left. I have to slect a good template for my new blog too. If you have any suggestions and feedbacks for me, you can freely leave comments here. I am eagerly waiting for your comments :)

Regards

Simran

@ Pavan Kumar

Thanks a lot Pavan. I am getting good responses for this theme. I planned to change this one with a new theme similar to my previous template on blogger. But after getting good responses, I think I should stick to this one only. :)

The best thing is that finally you shift on your own domain.
My best wishes with you.

Congrats and all the best :)
I see that you have moved all your posts from Blogger to here. I am not sure if its a great idea. You better delete the posts from your blogger account at-least

Simran May 6, 2009 at 7:12 am

Thanks Raju

I have redirected all the posts from blogger to here and they are not opening on my old blog. If I delete the posts from blogger account then the posts that I submitted on social sites will become dead. So its better to keep them there also :)

Thanks mate. I will install a new theme soon. I know everyone is using thesis theme. Its nice theme with lots of features but its too common. So I’ve installed this theme for now only. I will change it whenever I got another good theme.

You can register a domain at godaddy.com and use it on your blogger blog. A domain name registration will cost you $10-$12… If you need more help, you can contact me using Contact Us page :)
