A couple of weeks ago I took up the domain mapping option offered by WordPress for my blog. I had previously registered www.utterance.com.au with another company and was sending www.utterance.com.au to www.peterhallett.wordpress.com successfully and with no apparent loss of traffic.
To qualify for the new WordPress advertising option, AdWords, I switched domain mapping to WordPress and the hits have softened considerably. WordPress advises that it will redirect people to the new URL so I am left wondering if there is something else I need to do to reinvigorate visits to my blog.
I’m sure someone out there in WordPress space will have some wisdom for me. And for those who don’t know what I’m talking about, neither do I, mostly.
I have considered the domain name thing, but wasn’t sure about the consequences. Please keep me posted, Peter. God’s peace.
