Blogger and custom godaddy domain.

I need some help setting up my blog with my new custom domain. I purchased the domain of godaddy.com. I read both sites help files and i think i did everything right it seems like i have not. I talked to godaddy's support and they told that in my CNAME record i have neglected the host IP. I am ready to start over.

So please can anyone explain me how to do the CNAME properly?


Thanks.

 

First of all, you will need to change the settings in your blogger account to access your blogspot blog under your custom domain. Once it is done, you need to add the CNAME to point to the ghs.google.com. You should contact GoDaddy to find the help as to how to add the CNAME for the domain. There may be some option like DNS Zone Editor or Zone Editor or edit Host Records etc. but it is better to contact GoDaddy on this.

 

Just go to your dns management section. Then you can find that there

 

1. Log in to domain registration account at GoDaddy
2. Open the Domains tab and select My Domain Names. You'll be directed to the Manage Domains page.
3. Click the domain that you'd like to use with blogger
4. Click the Total DNS Control.
5. Click Add New CNAME Record. If you've already created a CNAME record for the address, click Edit next to the existing CNAME record.
6. Click Continue, and then click Add. If you're editing an existing CNAME record, click Continue and Update.
