Did you read Everton’s first post about the importance of picking the right domain name? If not then read “Why Choosing A Good Domain Name Is Important” first.

Since I moved my domain petersen-inc.dk to www.betanews.com on July 3rd, a lot has happened. My old Google Page Rank hasn’t returned…yet and my Alexa Rank is down 800,000 compared to my old URL. Thanks to the redirection, mentioned in Everton’s article from earlier this week, my traffic is still the same so it should only be a matter of time before everything is back to normal again.

You can follow my progress in the article series: Moving To Another Domain – What I’ve Learned So Far
