    Hey friends,

    I have decided to transfer one of my domains hosted on blogger, to a new domain bought using namecheap.
    I mean blogger will still be the webhost provider but instead of myname.blogspot.com i want to use myname.com
    I have bought the domain but i have no clue what to do next in the namecheap control panel.
    This is the advice given by blogger

    Other hosting services

    1. Log in to your account on your hosting service's website, and go to the DNS management page.
    Since CNAME records are special Domain Name Service (DNS) records, they may be in sections such as DNS Management or Name Server Management. It's possible that you will have to enable advanced settings to create a CNAME record.
    2. Delete existing CNAME entries for the address you want to use with your blog.
    Before entering a new CNAME record to point to Google, you should first delete any existing entries for the same alias. If you plan to transfer an existing web address to Blogger, you may want to copy any content currently at that address elsewhere first.
    3. Use the information in the following table when you create your CNAME record.
    If your service requires you to enter server information directly into the DNS tables, the entry below needs to have a type CNAME associated with them.

    Host Name/Alias


    Value/Destination
    www ghs.google.com
    * This is the part of your website’s address that you designated. For instance, if you chose www.mydomain.com as the address, www is the host name.

    Can you help me please?Where do i have to change the CNAME ow whatever?
