Since I am based in South Africa, I thought it would be great to make my blog a bit more local as well. So I got fromtheold.co.za and added it to Fromtheold.com

So for those real SA fans you can now type Fromtheold.co.za to get to my site

Why would I do this?

Here is why:

When you have a .com you dont end up on search results locally “.co.za” so adding a .co.za and redirecting it to my .com I can now show up on local search results even though it’s a .com
