Control Your Domain!

+ Posted by Josh Hallett on 04.12.07 // 02:30 PM

I think I've said this before :-) When you launch a corporate blog make sure you own your domain and the long-term control of your content.

Shel points out that Kryptonite is blogging. Great, but they're using Blogger and a URL they don't control: http://unbreakable-bonds.blogspot.com/

Spend a little bit of time and money to use/configure a service that allows you to have your own domain name. How about blog.kryptonitelocks.com? Or if you want to stick with the 'unbreakable' theme the domain unbreakablebonds.com is available (as of this post).

Hey Josh,

This is clearly great advice...I wonder if they don't understand why they should own their own domain?

Anyway good stuff....also enjoyed your coverage of the Forrester Forum.
