[This is the second video in this short series about how to set up and run a videogame blog. This video deals with the ever present issues surrounding the hosting of your blog.]

  • Use Instant Domain Search to find URLs
  • Buy basic misspellings and as many of the alternate endings for URLs (.co.uk, .org etc.) as you can afford
  • Buy related URLs too
  • Host with GoDaddy to start (they’re cheap), Media Temple once you’re growing (can cope with spiked traffic)
  • Keep the design & site simple
  • Use wp-cache
  • Find somebody who knows what they’re doing if you’re getting stuck
