When I first start my old blog at http://www.inconsistency.wordpress.com, I had no intention of making it public. I wasn’t a newbie blogger back then either. I just didn’t want to.
Things started to changed after a couple months. My hands are itching to blog again. I was dying to install all these plugins on my blog. I also wasn’t satisfed with the themes that were provided. Next thing I know, I started to write posts that are not just intended for myself. Then I wrote this one post about scams on Craigslist and it was the tipping point moment. Everyday I have at least 20 visitors to the post. After about a couple months it became the number 1 search result on Google for certain keywords within the post. People from all over the world left comments to thank me or had posted other scam emails they received. It had became almost a discussion board for people who had been scammed before.
Obviously it would be hard to take a risk and move my entire blog from WP.com to a self-host domain. I read all sorts of things about losing Google ranking and some people downright call this a relocation nightmare. After months of research and ignoring the pain, I finally decided to start over again. From today on, I will no longer be updating my old blog and this will be my brand new start.
