First of all, I hope that this post is allowed here... Fellow myloters, I need your help. I planned to host my blog to my own domain from blogspot. I am planning to get the 1and1 web hosting. Correct me if I am wrong but as far as I understand and what my friends told me, everything in my blog will remain the same except that I will have a new URL without the blogspot in it. My main concern is, I am into paid blogging right now like PPP, sponsoredreview and the like. I already submitted paid posts to them. So, if I am going to transfer my blog to my own domain, will the URL's of the paid posts I submitted will automatically be change or do I need to update the URL? If you could please walk me through this, I would appreciate it so very much. Please also share to me any disadvantage for doing this if there is. By the way, here's my blog URl http://www.mariesweetlullaby.blogspot.com. Thank you in advance!

Hi Marie, I am into designing sites and hosting them, you are invited to host them on the ample spare space thatI have which I can offer at $25/year/25Gigs. Some of my sites are, www.sweetpals.com www.vesperdaycare.com mtshivalik.com .

hi girl, are you using the hosting of 1and1? i don't know more about the hosting of 1and1. i only know it is the largest domain register in Europe. the price of domain of 1and1 is cheap, but transfer is difficult and complicated.

Hi marie, Your friends are right, your blog will stay the same. The only difference is you will have an actual domain name. If a site has your old URL, it will still bring them to your blog and it should forward to your new URL. Its actual pretty smoothly done. good luck =) -Claidissa

Claidissa, thank you so much for the wonderful input you got here for me. I truly appreciate your quick response. As what I pointed out, my main concern are the URLs of the post that I submitted to them and I am glad it will work just fine for me, my blog and the blog paying sites. Have a great Sunday!
