Well i got my own Domain recently (Obafemionline.com) and it has been wonderful, you tend to have a lot of control on what you do. by the way you people could juist have a look at the site and see what needs to be tidied up. iwould love that you know. thanks a lot.

Enkay it is quit cheap. i believe you can have your's from as low as 3k and above.

great info but for now i think I will stick to blogger, coz my blogging is a hobby at the moment and IT is just not my forte.

Girl thank you thank you thank you so much for my fridge magnets, i got them yesterday (well they arrived whilst i was in hospital and my sister had helped herself to them…..never mind a story for another day) all the same thank you soooooooo much they are making my fridge door the happiest sexiest fridge door this side of the Atlantic

This is some great info. I have been thinking of registering my domain name recently cos of my book and the other great reasons you have highlighted here. I should really do it sooner rather than later. Having your own website can be a great marketing and networking tool in this day and age….
Thanks GNG!

►JustDB

Oh! Well that makes more sense. I don't know javascript, but my friend said you can just copy the codes and insert them as needed; that you don't really need to know what's up.

►FemiB

My pleasure! When can we expect FemiB.com to show up?

►Tigeress

Hmmm, tell me more about this Bob o. Forget the domain support…is he single? ;)

►Toluwa

Hey, if and when you have the time and interest, you should look into it. Your best friend is into CMS's? Cool!

►naijagirl

Oh, no way! Have you tried reading books on building websites? My problem is I read and read and never TRY…so I don't get far. I did build mine but they are very basic in my opinion. I want to build sites that are a joy to visit as the content is to read.

Don't give up on your plans to build a site though…I bet you're one of those people that once you read a bit you'll get the hang of it!

►Seye Kuyinu

Money ko, honey ni.

►Temite

Hmm, get outta here jare. When you're ready to launch http://www.Temite.com don't come looking for me…

►Writefreak

You're clearly jealous…pele.

►BSNC

hehe, anytime you need to know, I'll send you a cute bobo to show you the ropes.

►solomonsydelle

Thanks lady, and thank for sharing your own particular experience. I think branding is so important too.

►Buttercup

hehe…I'm fine thanks. You and temite sef are trying my patience. When you want to start your own .com don't come looking for me sha because I will deny knowing you ;)

►Vera Ezimora

Thanks girl! I sure do know and agree that having a dot com means a lot, especially when you're wanting to get your name out there. Next step is business cards abi? :)

I do get you. I can send you some info on switching to a content management system that will allow you to create pages relatively easily…though maybe Roc has some info on creating pages using blogger, since I think he's using blogger too.

Babe, I'm with you on this. I lovvvvvvve that I have paid for my domain. Telling people to visit http://verastic.blogspot.com is totally different from just saying Verastic Dot Com, you know??? U know what I wanna do? I wanna learn how to put those tabs up there... like you do. Basically, I wanna create pages; you get?

I learned from Oz (Mootbox.com) that owning my own domain name is important. I have since come to learn that for branding purposes alone, owning my own domain name was crucial.

Nice post, as usual.
