When I was new here at blogging, I had a long URL. My first blog was http://tinkiiwinkii.blogspot.com. See, that's really long and I wanted to make it shorter. I didn't know that there's such things as Free URL Forwarding, Free Sud-domains and Shorter URL Redirect Service. So what I did was, I got a domain from GoDaddy.com and I'm lucky enough that their ".net" was on sale that time. I got it for just $7 with the help of my Mommy AM.
If only I just knew about the free URL forwarding, maybe I just tried that one instead of buying a domain. That would not cost me any amount. I also would have tried first the free sub-domains and url redirect before buying. I love my domain name though but my layout doesn't complement my domain name. Hehe. That's because I just want to have a simple layout so that my site would load easily.
I suggest that if you have a long URL like my first blog, go for free url forwarding, free sub-domains and shorter URL redirect because buying a domain is really expensive. And also, it would only last for a year. You have to renew it every year if you want to maintain a website. And maintaing a website is not that easy as that of a blog. Because in my perspective, you have to make it worth your money.

oo nga mas maganda yung maikli lang kase pag mahaba, mahirap tandaan.
Tama Grace, mas maganda mas simple para hindi mainip ang visitors mo sa pagload ng site mo.
Anyway, ayaw gumana ng site mo kapag walang www. hindi mo pa ba nagawa 'yun? Eto ung ginawa ko sa domain ko para automatic na maredirect sa may www : Redirect Your Domain Name to WWW
