How To Get A Free Domain Website For Bloggers Wednesday 09 November, 2016
Hi friends. I have just completed my first Blogalicous Conference and I wanted to share something for all of those who are seeking to get a blog website. Whether you are a newbie blogger or considering starting one I can tell you how to get a FREE blog domain site. You cannot be a true blogger today without a website.
Me as a Domain.ME ambassador
Let me state when I started blogging back in 2006 (ten years ago) I used Blogspot.com. That is dated. Very dated. In fact, you will be taken less seriously if you have a blog at .blogspot.com now. It’s too long and it just screams, “Hey I can’t get the domain site I want right now so I will settle for this”. Ten years ago I did settle for that, it also was the only option. I respect Blogspot.com because it is the mother of Blogger in the first place…but we are in a time period where bloggers have stepped their game all the way up. Everyone owns their domain now. You should have a blog that is a reflection of you blog and brand, and any hosting site that has extra verbiage in your url. link will be just too much to process.
I will also admit when I started KiwiTheBeauty in 2012…I didnt even have a website. Can you believe that? I had a camera, Facebook and Instagram but for the longest time I didn’t have an actual site. Unacceptable I know and it took the end of that year to actually get my own domain site (Dec.5th, 2012). So I have been there, the desire to blog but not feeling confident because I couldn’t own my domain yet. Well you shouldn’t be like me anymore. There are option and I am going to tell you about a way on how to get a FREE domain!
I was so proud to be a brand ambassador on the behalf of Domain.Me at Blogalicious which allows you to own your brand with a .Me on the end of your url. No it’s not .com like most site but its just as effective if not more because it stands out! You can create so many unique names to go with your .ME url. For example Time Magazine owns Ti.ME and the Despicable Me brand bought Despicable.ME. So you can get real creative or simple use your name and utilize .ME after it. At Blogalicious I told many of the attendees about the site and gave them free codes to get this service for a year Free. Yes, an entire year for free for a website that will belong to them. Purchasing your domain and hosting site is what stops many people from building their website in the first place so this is one less thing to worry about.
Creative Ways To Purchase Your Own Blog Site
Your Own Name .ME (if you don’t use your name as your blog name already).
Your Children’s Name for the future
Inspirational Sites Such as InspiredBy.ME, DesignedBy.ME, Creative.ME, VisionsBy.ME
Find Fun Ways To Stand Out on a business card or even resume such as PleaseHire.ME, YouWillLove.Me, IAmAweso.Me, DontForget.Me, etc…
Those are just a few ideas. Again you can get super creative with it and have fun with different ways to own your site via Domain.ME. Below are some examples from the photobooth area at the conference on how they played on the word ME.
Bloggers at the Domain.ME Suite at the Blogalicious 8 Conference
I encourage you if you have a desire to have your own blog in the near future you will definitely need to get your domain for it. Blogging is serious buisness now and most bloggers own their domain names and it becomes their personality. The days are gone where a blogsite is extremely long because it was bought on a platform where it was free but you had to adopt their site as well. Domain.ME gives you the luxury of owning your name as unique as you!
So How Do You Get The FREE WEBSITE already? Email me here at kiwithebeauty [at] gmail [dot] com and I will send you a personalized code that you can have access to for a FREE SITE to Domain.Me for a year! Don’t worry you don’t have to sign up for anything with me nor will I spam you further. I am simply going to give you a unique code that will give you the complimentary domain for a year for you to get started. Sounds good?
Do You Know Of Other Creative .ME site names one can use for their future Blog or Business?

Wow. What a great offer! Free domain hosting for a year! I love the .Me idea. It would work on a business website, and would also add more oomph to a personal website. Thanks for sharing this info. I’ll check it out.
Ha, I remember the blogspot days! In fact, I think I still have one lingering out there somewhere that was supposed to be for family only. I’ve heard about people getting domain names for the children and this would be a fun way to do it!
This is a great idea and a giveaway for those who wants to start their blogging career! I have couple of friends who would be very interested. Thanks for sharing this!
Blogging has come a long way from 10 years ago for sure. I know a lot of people that need a great starting point for start their blog, I will be referring them to this.
I remember Blogspot 🙂 . Hey, it’s always nice to have free domain for a year. Every bit helps, especially when you are starting out. I’m not as creative a you with the names 🙂
I keep wanting to get a .me but I am already such a domain hoard. I should just go ahead and do it since I can get it for free. It was great seeing you at Blogalicious.
This is great… especially for those just starting a blog/website. One of my best friend’s father wants to start a blog and needs my help with it… I may suggest this!
I would have loved if ME was around when I started up my blog! I have a few friends just setting up their blogs now so I will tell them to give ME a try!
You’ve got some great hints for bloggers. Congratulations on putting one more feather in your writing career. You have a happy, upbeat personality and a zest for living life to the fullest.
I was .blogspot.com for awhile until I decided to take the plunge and go more ‘legit.’ I actually just re-branded and got a new domain name that I’m really excited about!
I like the way they used ‘me’ in the word play. This is good information to have! I am thinking of switching from blogger to something that will be mine.
I need to get a personal website and this is perfect! Can’t wait to register for a ME DOMAIN and yay to getting a bit of a freebie too! Thanks for sharing this awesome Intel!
It would be awesome to be able to get a free domain, especially since it’s not getting any cheaper. This is a nice opportunity especially for those who are just starting!
First of all, congrats on 10 years of blogging…that is impressive! And I loved your tips for getting creative with blog domains
