My Own Domain Finally! *

I finally did it YAY!! After much talking and contemplating about having my own domain, I finally got around to purchasing my very own domain name for both Wishing On A Falling Star and Mariuca's Perfume Gallery! Mind you, it was not planned or anything. As usual whenever I feel like doing something new, it would most likely stem from a spontaneous decision, which was what happened yesterday while I was talking to my buddy LJ! :)

After bouncing off a few emails to each other, my midnight buddy and me got to talking about moving my blogs to my own domain. I do this dance with LJ every few months actually! Whenever one of my friends boasts about having a new domain of their own, I'd surely shoot an email to LJ asking her how to go about doing it LOL! And again, she'd patiently explain to me what all this means and the procedures I'd need to go through in order to move my blog to my own domain. So yesterday, after really understanding the truth behind the domain move and what will happen following that, I decided to take the plunge and make that switch!

Of course, I had LJ to assist me every step of the way, and I decided to go with GoDaddy as recommended by her. I was worried the process was going to get me all confused (which it did!) but thanks to LJ who guided me step by step, the move to my new domain was done in a jiffy, upon purchasing my domain names!

So yes, my PR is now a big fat 0 and I lost all my Techno ranking and Alexa too, which saw me busy writing in to all the blog programs I'm registered under to have my URL changed to the new one. Surprisingly however, I am not too upset about that at all! What I can say for certain is that I am really excited at the idea of finally having my very own domain name and am looking forward to enjoying the greater exclusivity, credibility and mobility that come with having my own domain name. I can't wait to have my own email address too he he! I will of course work slowly towards building up my PR again and I sincerely hope everyone who is on my blogroll for both my blogs will provide me some assistance by changing my old URL to the new one, which I am so proud to present below!

Unfortunately for me, I could not get the name Mariuca or MPG as my domain names seeing that they've already been taken, so after much thinking, I purchased the best one available. Allow me now to present my new blog address for Mariuca - http://www.mymariuca.com and the new URL for MPG - http://www.mariucasperfume.com! YAY me ha ha ha! Excuse me for being excited, but I just can't help it! After countless times seeing many of my friends moving their blogspot blogs to their own domain, I too can finally join in their excitement and let me tell you, the feeling is simply awesome! :)

So PLEASE kindly change my current URL at your blogroll to the new address mentioned above, it will hopefully help me get back my PR by the time Mr. G does another round of PR update! THANK YOU so much for your time and cooperation peeps, Mariuca loves ya! :)
