Top 5 Bonuses To Hosting Your New Blog On Your Own Domain

Just so you know………..I use Host4Profit web hosting services to host both my domain and my blog!

Now………….Most Internet marketers understand the huge benefits of hosting their blogs on their own domains but if you need a few reasons or answers…….read on!

If you are really serious about earning money on the web and ranking highly in the search engines, then set up a blog and host it on your own domain. Here are the top reasons why this is a great idea, and also some of the main benefits you get from hosting your blog on your domain.

 When you have your blog hosted on your domain, you get complete control over everything! You can have your own theme and design, which means your blog can match your website logo. Your blog can be as individual as you are! This can give you the one up on competing blogs in the same niche which may possibly have similar layouts. By hosting your blog this way, you can control your blog and add or remove any features you want or don’t want.

 By hosting your blog on your domain name, especially if it’s a really good domain name, you make it easier for people to remember your blog.

Hosting your blog on your own domain means that you can develop and promote your own brand much more effectively.

 You can match your design for your blog headings; fonts etc and make them similar to your website. This again helps with branding.

 In terms of search engine optimization (SEO) and advertising, you are in control! SEO is easily achieved by targeting your relevant keywords in every blog post. It is also effective when your domain name includes your main keywords. This will get you noticed and increase your blog’s visibility on search engines.

 When you host your blog on your own website, you get the bonus of added security. Then you don’t have to worry about losing your information or getting locked out of your account.

 You also get the additional plus of being able to cross-link your blog and your site and if done correctly you will gain back links.

 When you host your blog on your own domain – (with Wordpress) you can easily add Google Adsense to your pages – where as if it is hosted by Wordpress you can not monetize your blog in this way!

I use Host4Profit webhosting for both my We Make Money Online website and my We Make Money Online Blog and get a great deal into the bargain!

These are just a few reasons why it makes great sense to host your blog on your own domain! Based on these ideas, if you are really serious about your online business, you definitely should explore the option of hosting your blog on your own domain.

    Hey Kym,
    You’re right, having your own blog gives you so much freedom! I know that you don’t really have to have your own domain to start making money but the thing is, the benefits of having your own blog hosted at your own domain FAR FAR FAR outweighs the benefits of a blog hosted by someone else!
