It took some time to work out all the kinks, but we’ve got domain-mapping working on BloodhoundBlog.net.
What does that mean?
You can set up a free BloodhoundBlog.net weblog, say, something like myblog.BloodhoundBlog.net.
Then you can go to a domain registrar like Godaddy.com and register your own domain, perhaps MyOwnDomain.com. You don’t have to buy a hosting package or anything else, just the domain.
Then, with a little help from us, you can set up MyOwnDomain.com so that it displays myblog.BloodhoundBlog.net.
From the point of view of both your users and search engine spiders, your weblog is hosted at MyOwnDomain.com.
Here’s an example, a melancholy celebration of Dayton by Teri Lussier. The blog is built on BloodhoundBlog.net, but, because of domain-mapping, it looks like it lives on its own server.
WordPress.com charges $10 a year for domain-mapping. We’ll do it for free — with the stipulation that you really are a hard-working real estate blogger. If you’re really pounding out the content, we can help you customize your blog’s theme, too.
Between money work, web work and WordPress work, I’m coming and going, but we have a lot of cool announcements coming up. Stay tuned…

Since you are talking about godaddy, I’ll also provide a few recent findings for Godaddy.com promo codes. I am an OOPS Programmer, and these discount coupons come in very handy when purchasing or renewing an internet domain name. Use Godaddy promo code ZINE3 for $7.49 .com domains and renewals. I save about $25 every time I purchase domains from godaddy. When I buy at least 5 domains, I also get free private registration when I use ZINE3. For other Godaddy coupons, use ZINE1 for 10% off, ZINE2 for $5 off any $30+ purchase, and ZINE25 for $25 off any purchase of $100 or greater, like hosting plans. These promo codes are current, working, and do not expire. Hope these Godaddy promo codes save just as much cash for the other readers as they have for me. Have a good one!
