In this post, I am using the above-mentioned domain companies since most new biz can easily afford a .com.ng domain and also is a local domain extension in Nigeria.
To get started linking your .blogspot blog to your own .com, .com.ng, .ng, .org etc, follow these steps;
Step 1: Login to your Blogspot blogger dashboard(blogger.com) then open a new tab and login your domainking or whogohost client area.
Note: Am assuming you have already paid for your domain
Step 2: Click on my domain in your client area to see the list of domains you own.
Step 3: Select the domain you wish to use and click on Manage domain
Step 4: Scroll down to find on the domain window till you find name server and make sure it is set to default
Step 5: Locate install blogger option after the name server option and click on it.
Step 6: Go to your blogger dashboard and click on setting then select basic
Step 7: Locate your blog url and click on setup custom url domain.
Step 8: Enter the domain name you have bought from domainking or whogohost like this “www.updatefly.com” and click on setup.
Step 9: Copy the second nameserver Sample: Name: m2z3tqXYZ: Destination: gv-axipq5akbdgxhn.dv.
Note: Use the one generated on your blogger dashboard.
Step 10: go back to step 5 and enter the section with the name under the space for name and copy the remaining part into the section for the destination and click save.
Step 11: return to your blogger dashboard and click save(You may need to wait for one hour before doing this)
