1 year blog anniversary and upcoming rebranding

Today marks the one year anniversary of the blog. Thanks for all your contributions and comments (well thanks for most of the comments)

I have decided to move the blog to eatfeats.com and integrate the blog with the database currently hosted at that URL unless there is overwhelming demand for the blog to stay at trencherwomen. The focus of the blog has gradually shifted from female competitive eaters to competitive eating in general and it is time that the domain name reflected that (and the fact that a sizeable portion of the population does not know what a trencher(wo)man is probably has not helped things).

I will set trencherwomen to automatically redirect to eatfeats when I have the database intregation complete which I hope will be by July 25, which is the anniversary of the date trencherwomen.com was pointed to the blog. After the search engines have indexed the new URL in a month or two, I will stop the automatic redirection and restore the original focus of trencherwomen by syndicating the blog entries dealing with female competitive eaters on it.

    That’s better. Trencherwoman is a lame site which is so boring.

    OJ I hope you can find a way to profit from your efforts in the future. Your product is the best on the web, and I think that shows in the amount of people who come here every day.

    Sounds like a good plan. Although I suspect you’ll still be refered to as “Trencherwoman” for awhile to come. Thanks for putting so much time in to make this site a real resource and meeting ground for eaters and fans.

    Thanks OJ for all your hard work I can’t believe how deep you dig for info. Also I suggest that the new site have a huge picture of you at the top on the first page.
