But already it's paying off by having it on this domain because before I even launched I was getting search traffic and the site already made money! I may eventually transition it over, but only if it gets big enough to transition the traffic. And it really makes me wish that Technorati would let you move a blog to a different URL while keeping your rank intact. It's kind of like the cell phone companies that used to keep you hostage with your phone number! ;) Thanks Sham, Denise and Ariane! :D

Initially I was thinking the separate domain would look cleaner but I can understand the desire to leverage the reputation you have built up here.

I own the domain name ShoestringSmarts.com - so I can move it whenever I want to! What's your opinion on that one, my SEO friend? :D I was actually going to start it on a different domain, but Aaron Wall encouraged me to start it out on a trusted domain to leverage the traffic and PR I have built up here.
