To connect your Blogger blog to a GoDaddy domain, you need to configure the domain settings in GoDaddy and then update the DNS settings. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you with the process:
Step-1: Sign in to your GoDaddy account at www.godaddy.com.
 |
| www.godaddy.com |
Step-2: Once you're logged in, click on your username at the top-right corner and select "My Products" from the dropdown menu.

Step-3: In the "Domains" section, locate the domain you want to connect to your Blogger blog and click on the "Manage" button next to it.
 |
| Click on Manage Tab |
Step-4: In the domain management page, look for the "DNS" tab and click on it.
 |
| DNS Setting |
Step-5: Scroll down to the "Records" section and click on the "Add" button to add a new DNS record.

Step-8: Next, go to the Blogger website (www.blogger.com) and sign in to your Blogger account.
 |
| Login Your Blog |
Step-9: From the Blogger Dashboard, select the blog you want to connect to your GoDaddy domain or create a new blog if you haven't done so already.
Step-10: In the left-hand menu, click on "Settings" and then choose "Basic."
 |
| Click on Setting choose Basic. |
Step-11: Under the "Publishing" section, click on the "Set up a third-party URL for your blog" link.
 |
| Set up a third-party URL for your blog |
Step-12: Enter your GoDaddy domain name in the format "www.yourdomain.com" and click on the "Save" button.
 |
| www.yourdomain.com |
Step-13: You'll receive an error message with two CNAME records that you need to add in your GoDaddy DNS settings. One record will be for the naked domain (yourdomain.com), and the other for the www subdomain (www.yourdomain.com).

Step-14: Go back to the GoDaddy DNS management page for your domain and add two more CNAME records using the values provided by Blogger.
|
| DNS CNAME Records |
Step-15: Once you have added both CNAME records, go back to the Blogger Dashboard and click on the "Save" button to save your changes.
|
| Save Setting |
Step-16: After saving, click on the "Edit" button next to your domain name, and check the box that says "Redirect yourdomain.com to www.yourdomain.com."
 |
| Edit Records |
That's it! The DNS changes may take some time to propagate, but once they do, your Blogger blog will be connected to your GoDaddy domain.
Remember, it's important to note that Blogger doesn't support naked domains (e.g., yourdomain.com) directly, so setting up the redirect ensures that visitors are automatically redirected to the www subdomain when they enter the naked domain.
