If you want to give a new identity to your blog, then you have to know how to add custom domain in Blogger. If you do not know how to make a free blog, then you must read this article.
You must be thinking that if we have created a blog for free, then what is the need of domain in it? So first you should know what is a domain name? Blogger, which is a product of Google, gives you the opportunity to create a free main blog.
This does not mean that you run your blog in it. A free blog comes with a sub-domain name.
Let me tell you what is a sub domain. When you buy a domain name, you can use it to create many more domains. If your main domain is your father, then all the sub-domains are his child.
Benefits of using a domain name in blogger
There are many benefits of using a custom domain name in Blogger. If you want to know, blogger is giving us domain for free, then what is the need to add a domain. So let's know about its benefits.
1. Professional Look: A sub-domain is very big, and others cannot even remember it quickly. So it will give you a professional look and others will also be able to remember it.
2. Alexa Ranking: If your domain is jaanaco.blogspot.com and someone from India opens it then it will open in hindime.blogspot.in. Similarly .blogspot.us in America and .blogspot.pk in Pakistan. There is a problem with this that you will not be able to increase the Alexa Rank of your blog quickly.
3. Search Ranking: If someone does some search in Google and the name of your blog comes in .blogspot.com, then most people do not visit the same link. So due to this the ranking of your blog also gets lower than the search results.
4. Adsense Approval: It does not matter whether you have custom domain or your blog is in blogspot domain. You can get Adsense approval. Blogger is a product of Google, so there is no problem with it. But if you add a domain, it increases your chances of getting your account approved in Adsense.
It is very easy to add a custom domain name to Blogger. If you have a free blog and you want to add your domain name to it, then follow it.
Part 1: Add Custom Domain

2) Here on the blog where you want to add your custom domain, go to Settings.
3) Here you have to go to the Publishing section and click on Custom domain option.
4) Now you have to enter your purchased domain here. Your domain should be in the format of www.your-domain.com. After adding, click on the “Save” button.
5) Now you will get an error message, “We have not been able to verify your authority to this domain. On your domain registrar's website, locate your Domain Name System (DNS) settings and enter the following two CNAMEs: (Name: www, Destination: ghs.google.com) and (Name: p347obi343af, Destination: gv-gijycixq3d4waw.dv.googlehosted .com). See https://support.google.com/blogger/answer/1233387 for detailed instructions.“. This means that the DNS (Domain Name System) of your domain was not set on blogger.
