Blog Domain Is Your Blog’s Address and Default Blog Name
When you sign up for Mikihands Blog, you need to choose a Blog Domain.
A Blog Domain is the unique address name that identifies your blog. It can only be set once during sign-up and cannot be changed later.
Why It Matters
Your Blog Domain is more than just a short piece of text.
It:
- forms part of your blog URL
- is recorded by search engines for SEO
- becomes part of the brand you share with others
It also has another important role:
- If you do not set a separate Blog name (display), 👉 your Blog Domain will be used as your blog name
In other words, your Blog Domain may also appear to readers and search engines as the default name of your blog.
Basic URL Structure
For regular users who do not use a custom domain, the blog URL is created in the following format:
https://blog.mikihands.com/{blog_domain}/
This URL becomes the main page of your blog.
When Using a Custom Domain
Premium users can connect their own domain.
Example:
https://example.com
In this case:
- your default Mikihands Blog address
https://blog.mikihands.com/{blog_domain}/
- will automatically redirect to your custom domain
→ https://example.com
Even when someone visits the default address, they will be redirected to the connected custom domain. This structure is designed with SEO in mind.
Why It Cannot Be Changed
A Blog Domain cannot be changed once it has been set.
This is to:
- keep search engine indexing stable
- maintain a consistent URL structure
- prevent existing links from breaking
How to Choose a Blog Domain
We recommend choosing a name that is:
- short and easy to remember
- brand-oriented. Since your personal nickname can be used as your author name, we recommend choosing a name that represents your blog’s brand rather than your own nickname.
- simple, without special characters or spaces
- written in lowercase from the beginning, as uppercase letters are converted to lowercase by the server
