The first investment of a Blogger

After writing a few weeks or months in a blog one seeks to take the next step and wondered What do I do with my blog? Can I switch to a hosting payment? Is advertising contract to increase visits? Doubts that have no response until the run, but really, what should be the first investment by a blogger or webmaster?

In my view there is only one answer that takes a lot to the other: A domain name itself. Why? So why:

• You can say that you own a name that you can turn into brand.
• It gives you more presence on the network. Exactly because I do not understand, but having a domain name makes so-called "big blogs" you take into account more and more serious.
• It is portable. You can change between hosting services free or pay your domain and always will be able to move along with your blog.
• Purchase value. There is already a well-trained market selling domains with traffic that if for any reason, you need to sell can do so with relative ease.
• They are cheap. They are only $ 10 or less you will own the domain for one year.
• If you have good imagination or you're lucky to find a good domain will be easier for your readers to remember and to have a positive impact on the SEO.

Regularly I do not give recommendations, because I am also learning process, but having a domain strikes me as a basic and simple step that gives great big advantages. If you have an opportunity, a domain that is your first investment.
