15 Steps To Set Up A Custom Blogger Domain With A Godaddy Account

Hi, Converting a blog to a custom domain is very easy (because the blogger himself will take care of the whole hosting procedure), but if you buy a domain from GoDaddy or other web hosting services, you have to manually create the settings in the blogger, like so as in your domain manager. This is a very easy step. Just follow the steps below.

1. Log in to your Blogger account -> Settings Tab -> Post Tab.

2. Click “Switch to custom domain”.

3. Now, click “Switch to advanced settings”.

4. Enter your domain {Ex: Techzene.com} -> Enter Word Verification and click Save Settings

5. On the next page, check the box [Redirect techzene.com] -> Enter Word Verification -> Save Settings. Now, you will be shown “Congratulations, your blog is ready!”

6. Now log in to your GoDaddy account and go to Domains -> My Domains{Domain Manager}.

7. Click your site name and the Open nameservers link.

8.Enter [NS09. DOMAINCONTROL.COM] for nameserver 1 and [NS10. DOMAINCONTROL.COM] for nameserver 2. Make sure you have selected Custom Nameservers.

9. Now, click on Total DNS Control and MX Records.

10. Delete existing A records, if any (the ones at the top)

11. Click “Add new A record”.

12. Enter the details as shown in the figure below and click OK.

13. Delete the CNAME that has a host of www

14. Click Add New CNAME Record

15. Put www in the field Enter an alias name, ghs.google.com in the Points to host name field and leave the TTL at 1 hour. Click OK.

NOTE: Settings may take 1 hour to save and work.
