[Publishing] Changing domains?

Has anyone ever switched from blogger to their own domain? Is it easy to do? I am so scared to lose something in the transfer process. Would love to hear any experiences with this.

I haven't switched over, but I did buy my domain name (www.sweetnicks.com) and have the blogspot address just forward over there. Clare (at Eat Stuff) recently made the change, so you might want to drop her a line. Hope this helps!

Thanks! How did you forward the domain? I am a little clueless when it comes to this kind of thing. I will get in touch with Claire.

Who did you buy your domain name from? This is where I went: Blog Rolling, and there's a place to enter the forwarding part. If you get stuck, they answer Help! e-mails really quickly too. Hope this helps - if not, feel free to e-mail me. :)

I bought the domain from godaddy.com. I will check out the link you posted there and will post again with any questions. Thanks!

michele - in godaddy, log in, go to my account --> manage domain forwarding. select your domain, and on the right-hand side, you will see a "forward to" box. enter your site there, and then "save changes" at the bottom. let me know if that doesn't work ...
