I have been giving A LOT of thought to purchasing my domain for my blog. In other words, no more .blogspot. Which would be WONDERFUL! Right? The problem is that I am wondering, do I keep Paisley Passions for my name? Hmmmmmmm. I am perplexed!
When I started my blog the last week of July 2010, I had NO IDEA that it would take off and be liked by anyone. It was just a place for me to share my creations. A creative outlet of sorts. Anyway, I didn't give much thought to the name because I never thought anyone would care about what I had to say, or what I created.
The problem now is, if I change the name, what name would I choose to call this little 'ol blog of mine?
I have even thought about turning it into a contest. A "Name My Blog" contest, with a prize for the winner.
I don't know. I am just rambling here. So, what do you think? Do I change my blog name before I buy my domain? Do I make renaming my blog a contest? What to do? What to do?
Help me out :) Leave a comment and let me know what YOU think.

My vote: keep your name.
ReplyDeleteIt's who you are in blogland! =)
My vote would be for you to keep the same name too! I like it!
ReplyDeleteI like paisley passions. Even though we never met I feel that it fits you and the blog perfectly.
ReplyDeleteFrom a marketing standpoint, if you're starting out, it's best to put a keyword (that your blog is revolving around) in your domain name. However, since you have a ton of followers and have made a name for yourself, you've made "Paisley Passions" your own. It's like a brand name. If you like the name, please keep it. It's what people know you as. :) Plus, it's very unique, which is good for a blog dealing in creativity.
