Blogger Naked Domain Redirection

Important: All scripts hosted on widcraft.googlecode.com don't work anymore because Google has blocked that SVN repository.

The following action links your naked domain (example.com) to your actual site (www.example.com). If you skip this step, visitors who leave off the "www" will see an error page.

Enter your domain name in the format example.com, and list the I.P. addresses shown below in the "A" section. You'll need to create four separate A-records which point to four different Google IPs.

  • Sign in to your domain hosting service.
  • Navigate to your DNS Management page. i.e. Domain Management, Advanced Settings.
  • Locate the A record settings and create a new A record.
  • Enter a value for the host name. Leave this field blank and for some domain hosts, the value '@' corresponds to the naked domain.
  • Enter the following IP addresses as the destination value:

216.239.32.21
216.239.34.21
216.239.36.21
216.239.38.21

  • Save changes with your domain host.


Before you move onto this step, wait about an hour for your DNS settings to activate. If you attempt to change the publishing settings before the DNS changes activate, then we'll let you know with a warning message.

Now it’s time to make sure Blogger knows about your custom domain so that Google can direct readers to your blog. Just head back to Blogger and update the information on your Settings | Basic tab. Find the area for "Publishing," and click the edit link.


Check the Redirect yourdomain.com to www.yourdomain.com


Click on save and we're done.... still facing problems then click here.
