I’m changing my domain name for this blog. You can find new posts here: http://www.copywritingdean.com
I decided Stephensblog.com wasn’t the best domain for my business. My name (Stephen) is kind of hard to spell. Many people spell it wrong. And it’s spelled differently than it sounds.
Ideally I’d move to StephenDean.com, but that domain is not available and likely not for sale. Apparently there’s a French artist with the same name as me who got it first. (I have emailed about it, but never got a response.)
So what to do…
CopywritingDean.com makes a lot of sense to me.
* It does have my last name in it “Dean.”
* It contains the keyword I’m targeting most.
* It kind of has a double meaning. Copywriting Dean, or Dean of Copywriting. You know?!
* And it better explains my site.
This site currently gets a lot of search engine traffic, and I don’t want to leave it all behind. So I’m going to keep it up for a while and see what I can do with the traffic.
Hopefully I’ll be able to build up links to http://www.copywritingdean.com quickly. If you already have me in your blogroll, I’d really appreciate it if you changed the URL to copywritingdean.com.
If you don’t have me in your blogroll, I’d really appreciate it if you added me 
Again, thanks for reading everyone.

Hi Stephen,
The new blog theme looks great. I like the cool colors. Great posts too! : ) I added a link to your blog in my blogroll.
Take care,

It’s a little “soft” but pleasant. LOL

I love that you are adding a little “color” in your life.

@ James. Thanks! I appreciate it. I’m adding you to my RSS reader and will stop by to check it out.
@ Rick. Oh man, hearing that from a gun instructor I immediately felt like I needed to prove my manliness. And then I thought, wow, manliness is kind of a girly word.
@ Sarah. Hey! Is this your first comment! Probably. Thanks for stopping bye.

By the way, admittedly I have made a few tweaks, but this theme ranks very highly against search engine ranking factors.
Cutline always ranked very well for me, but it was REALLY boring me and was not showing up properly in IE.
Another reason for the switch was the “featured post” that I’m able to put up in the header. Love it! Just think of what you can do with that!
