What's that, you say? You've never seen that domain? That's because there's no content on it! Because figuring out how to put content on it is confusing and hard!
Here is what I want:
- I want this blog to have its own domain. I want to keep all the content, and preferably have more comment moderation options than I do now.
- I want a blog-like interface, preferably Wordpress. By that, I mean that the tool I use to update the site and manage comments is exactly like a blog that doesn't have it's own domain.
- I want to never, ever, ever, have to touch any other tools, even for a second. If I need to set some parameters once, then hit a button to send the blog live, and forever after it works like a regular blog? That's unacceptable. It has to be exactly like running a blog that doesn't have its own domain.
- I am okay with having to tell a person what my domain name is and then they do all the settings for me and then I can run it like a blog.
I have a domain through Wordpress now (yay! welleatyouupweloveyouso.com). It's only $19.99 if you are hosted on Wordpress and not on an external server. It was literally three or four button clicks, with a form to fill out with your credit card information. However, I'm not sure how that works if you already own the domain independently, as I signed up through the Wordpress.com site. In addition, you'd have to move the entire blog to Wordpress, which has the potential to be really complicated. However, I really like the comment moderation system.
