  1. are you sure by changing your default nameserver worked for you? cause i followed all your steps and it's not working. right now neither my naked domain nor my non-naked domain is working.

  2. is this still working? I am a new blogger in blogspot.com and just bought my domain at godaddy, I just wanna make sure if this still works since it is outdated.

  3. Hi Lasantha Bandara!

    This is a good tutorial. I have similar but different question. I have eNome and Godaddy domains. I like to redirect Godaddy domain to eNome. Can I do it using this method? I check the Godaddy DNS settings, I think permanent redirect is SEO friendly and it's not lost the backlinks. Am i correct?

  4. Thanks for your tips. I have set my A-section before like what "google support" said but not worked yet. This step very critical that I missed.

  5. Hi bro. I am Roonie. Thanks for the article. I have same problem with my godaddy domain in blogger, I applied 301 redirection and it works nice now. Is it safe to redirect every post with 301 to www. urls?

    Thanks for these tips again.
