Blogger Custom Domain with Blacknight without "www"

Intorduction

Want to link your fancy custom domain to your Blogger blog/website? Read on my wayward son (and/or daughter(s)).

Step 0: Start the process from the Blogger Console.

Note down the URLs for the final step (or just open a new tab for the Blacknight console). Copy and paste them into the CNAME records near the end of this posts.



Step 1: On the Blacknight Console Select "Registered Domains".

I presume you've already bought the domain.


Step 2: Select "Manage DNS" for your chosen Domain. 


Step 3: Go to the DNS Tab


Step 4: Go to the "DNS Records" and Click "Add New DNS Records".


Step 5: Add the A and CNAME Records.

The A Records are vitally important to the domain redirecting from the "www.domain..." to the "domain...".


Step 6: My table looks like this, remove any "@" records that may be there.


Step 7: Ensure that it's working from the Blogger Console.

Ensure that that "Redirect..." CheckBox is checked.


Step 8: The fun part, let the domain bake in the internet oven.


I hope this worked for you without problems.
