You may have noticed the change since yesterday. My venerable hosting provider, Abe of Ploghost, and I were in close coordination over the course of a couple of hours last midnight in my switching to our new racoma.com.ph domain. Still some minor glitches as of this posting (I’m trying to make racoma.net work perfectly in sync with the com.ph domain, too), but hopefully all will be solved within a few hours.
Other sub-domains have also moved:
A new one, just added:
It’s part of our “use COM.PH” campaign! We will be registering .com.ph domains for free for active bloggers, along with a year’s web hosting, SEO assistance (for those who want to be search-engine friendly, and who probably have popular blogs already), and blog set-up for your CMS of choice (we do recommend WordPress).
Do keep tuned in for more details. We will likely start off with those with active blogs and preferably with considerable readership. If you’re interested, email me your monthly stats for the past two months, along with your preferred .com.ph domain, and I’ll see what I can do for you.
Starstruck? Let's go star tripping.

1Does this mean we need to move our existing blog? Can we create a new blog?

2Hi Greg! Thanks for the response.
The basic premise is that the bloggers who will be given free .com.ph domains would actually be using the sites. Hence, we are initially targetting bloggers who are quite active, and have a considerable following (i.e., in terms of traffic and discussion/comments). Of course, we wouldn’t want to give away domains to people who will just sit on them.
After all, we do want to encourage the use of .com.ph.
In this regard, we think it’s best that bloggers migrate to the new domain. However, if you would rather set-up the domain with a new blog, or a different web site or application altogether, of course we’re open to discussions. What do you have in mind?

3First, I want to share my experience on writing software. But unlike most programmer’s blog, I don’t want to deal with mostly technical details like how to do this in PHP, Java, or Ruby, Linux or Windows. A lot of Pinoy programmers already deal with that. I want to focus on the people aspect of software development, especially the challenges in dealing with managers and customers.
Second, I am an aspiring entrepreneur and I want to share my experience on growing a business; something like “a programmer’s journey into the business of software” (that could be tagline :)) Hopefully, it would inspire other Pinoy programmers to try starting their own business. I have not officially started one but I am already working on an app right now.
I am bit uneasy on moving my existing blog because I feel it would be unfair to visitors if I put unrelated posts in the new domain.

4can I have a free .com.ph domain? I am a fairly new blogger, and am just starting to tell people about my blog.. It mostly talks about women, Filipinas in particular and having a .com.ph will be really great..
Je suis qui je suis…
