Recently i get a paid domain name (w/c is bleuken.com), i'm using it as my personal site. now my question how do search engines prioritize the sites on SERPS? on my observation, the older free blog is more prioritized than my new .com site. How much time i need to wait b4 my new domain over take my old blogs? I don't want to erase the old blogs. thank you in advance!

I deliberately picked a cheap, unassuming domain name as a challenge. That way if it does go good, I'll know it was not due to the domain name, but because of my skills as a blogger. Anyway, I was on an intention-manifestation craze that week (in December), and figured on a managable-sounding yet practically impossible goal of increasing my income to $10k/week *that week*. Now I look back and laugh, but the goal is still there in the domain name, tantalyzing me... This is fun. I deliberately picked a cheap, unassuming domain name as a challenge.

Just few days ago I started project called Make Money Online Professionals. I already placed hidden blog where "Money Making Bloggers" like your self submit posts and such.

Let us know what your new one is going to be, zirpy! :-) Gary, an important thing with brand names is the marketing. If one does not market the name who will know it? Still, I agree it is an important factor when looking for a good new domain name for ones Internet business. zirpy.net… sounds like a neat name.

Flickr, Google, Yahoo have no meaning whatsoever outside of their brand. They have nothing to do with their respective categories. Most people do not type in domain names directly to get to content. You find content via links, searches, bookmarks and RSS. Most good domain names have long since been picked over. I think picking a brand name is of far greater importance than picking a domain name.

They may not only be the most honest with you, they may give you additional ideas beyond our own point of view. You are excited about your choices, but are they? @ blogzilla, ease of remembering and to remember it correctly, even after a couple weeks or months, is the key, right? @ monaco, glad I could be of help, and thanks for stepping by.
