I'm new to this and I've learned a great deal from reading this forum over the last week....but I have some pressing questions. 1.Domain names lets say i have a page on blogger called thecandystore.blogspot.com and I go to godaddy.com and buy thecandystore.com. How do I change the name on blogger and use my blogger account with this new domain name? If I buy the google domain option does it include privacy guard?? 2.How do I add that conventional 'bar' to the top or side of my blog which includes contact information/about me etc.
I think the best way to for you to use Wordpress. It is easy to maintain and there are lots of free theme and plugins available on the net
The answer to the domain is found here: http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=55373 As far as the about me, just go to your blog dashboard>layout>add gadget. You can add the profile and drag it whereever you want it. Simple and easy.
