Hi everyone,

Today I decided to do something I’ve been thinking about for quite a while, namely changing the domain name of my blog to oldschoolgameblog.com. This will make it easier for you to type in the address in your browser, as the old one was too long.

The transfer seems to be working fine so far and I hope I won’t encounter any problems in the near future. Fingers crossed!

If you’ve got a link to my blog on your site, I’d be most grateful if you could point the link to oldschoolgameblog.com. Many thanks in advance.

Have a nice weekend folks and thanks for reading!

  Hey Spydersvenom,
  
  Thanks for commenting! Glad to hear it. I’m happy I did it. Now I must edit the main logo of the blog.

I did the same for my wife’s blog and I have to say it is really worth it. I will do it for my blog also very soon.

  Good to hear, mate. Good luck with changing your domain name! How’s it going with the bucket-project? If you’re a metal head, you should have an old metal bucket.

    I really hope to get some stuff done this weekend. As always very little time. For one I want to finish part 3 of my ReAction tutorial and post something else as well.
    
    I got a thick head but not metal.

        Oh of course Watchtower. I really got to. Good for a next game review I would say.

Pondering this myself, but can’t really decide if its worth doing. Other comments seen to indicate it’s worth doing. Other than having the domain what are the benefits??

  I think it is nice to be “the master of my domain”. It’s great that the address for the site is simpler too. I’ve read that you’ll get better exposure in search-engines as well.
