Now a days many people have blogs mainly on
blogger.The blogger is free service in which people can create their blogs on various topics
for free.They can choose domain name of blog with their own
choice however the domain they are given is www.BlogName.blogspot.com
means that they are given sub-domain of blogger.com which most of people
don't like they want to make it simply www.BlogName.com but the domain
.com is not free.There are many websites which offers domain names at
cheapest rates.I used
GoDaddy to register
my domain name as it is cheapest domain names provider in this case my
blog e.g maheradil.blogspot.com will be redirected to maheradil.com.
How to set up custom domain on Blogger using GoDaddy

In this tutorial i will provide information on how to set up blogger custom domain with
GoDaddy
as you know that many people want's .com domains for their blogs.first
of all you have to buy your domain name from GoDaddy.You may use Paypal
or
Credit/Debit/Prepaid cards..GoDaddy accepts the following cards Visa,Master Card,American Express,Discover.I personally use Visa Debit Card to register my domain name.Now when you have done buying your domain name you will be redirected to Control panel or simply at home page.Now follow these steps to setup custom domain name for you blog.
1.Make sure you are logged in.Click on My account at top left corner and Go to
Domain option then select
Launch.Now select the domain name you want to be redirected and then click on
Tools a
drop down menu will be open finally select
DNS manager and now DNS manager will be opened.
2.Now again select the
domain name and click on
Edit Zone
3.Now Edit Zone will open scroll down to record named as CNAME (Alias). Click on Quick Add
In the first field type www and in the second field type ghs.google.com then click on
save zone file.
Note= if
www record is already present in CNAME (Alias) just edit points to field and type ghs.google.com
4.Now click on
Add Record on top under your domain name.
5.A new window will open select
A(Host) option in
Record Type options.
Type @ in
Host Name field.
Type 216.239.32.21 in
IP Address
Select 1 hour in
TTL
It would look like this :-
Now add 3 more A(Host) records but don't click on
Add Record because we have already added A(Host)
record just click on
Quick add and these below records in A(Host).
Host Points to IP Address TTL
@ 216.239.34.21 1 Hour
@ 216.239.36.21 1 Hour
@ 216.239.38.21 1 Hour
Finally it would look like this :-
6.Now comes the
main step go to
blogger open your blog's settings Go to Blog address and click on
+ Add a custom domain
Now click on
Switch to advanced settings select the option
Redirect and type the domain name which you recently buy on GoDaddy then click on
Save. After a while settings will be saved don't forget to type full domain name including
www if a error comes that your domain is missing this record name so you can easily add record name as you are familiar with adding Records.I also added the record which they gave me at the end actually the last record is different from all other records 1 domain name have specific secret record
which cannot be used by others.After saving be patient it might take
upto 48 hours but at my time it only takes 15 minutes to redirect
domain..
