Point domain to Blogger

Hello,

May I ask if anyone has experience in pointing their domain to Blogger.

Question: How do you point your nameservers to Blogger?


......
According to Blogger:
GoDaddy.com
Log in to your account at www.godaddy.com.
Open the Domains tab and select My Domain Names. You'll be directed to the Domain Manager page.
Click the domain that you'd like to use with your blog.
Click the Total DNS Control And MX Records link at the bottom of the section entitled Total DNS.
Click Add New CNAME Record in the box labelled CNAMES (aliases). If you've already created a CNAME record for your blog's address, click the pencil icon next to the existing CNAME record.
For the Name, enter only the subdomain of the address you want to use for your blog. For example, if you picked www.mydomain.com as your address, enter www here.
Enter ghs.google.com as the Host Name. Specify a TTL or use the default setting of 1 hour.
Click OK, and then click OK again.

Well, you have the instructions. If you are having problems you can ask us about what is giving you problems.

You can also call or email Godaddy, there customer support is really, really good.

The other option is to get a hosting account and then put the Blogger blog on your domain that way. You'll have to pay for the hosting, but it may be much easier then messing aroung with DNS records... :-)

Maybe you have already worked it out, but here is how I do it (and specified in the info you posted).

In Godaddy control panel;
Change DNS
- use ---> www
- use ---> ghs.google.com

Go to 'domain forwarding' and point to your domain, ie http://www.yourdomain.com

Cheers
