Free WEB HOSTING

Posted by janean Wednesday, February 11, 2009 , , 6 comments »

Late last year I decide to have my own domain htpp://www.janedlive.info, with the influence of my friend. But, the problem is I don't know where to host it. So, I researched on the internet about web hosting, most of the result was paid hosting.

I never STOP searching, until I was able to find a site for free web hosting for Blogger's. Now, I got a free hosting from Blogger.

I made this post because I would like to share what I have learned from that site (I am really sorry I forgot the name of that site) for hosting your domain here in Blogger.

I hope I make the step clear.. If you have questions, just a leave comment.

Note: This STEPS is for those who have their domain in GoDADDY.COM

STEP 1. Log-in to your GoDaddy Account or Create an Account and CLICK the Domain Manager

Web hosting

STEP 2. Choose a Domain Name to be hosted by Blogger.

STEP 3. Go to TOTAL DNS COMTROL and MX RECORDS. Note: please the picture below to view it properly.

Then create a CNAME record for your Domain to point to ghs.google.com, as you see,in CNAME there is www below HOST and the CNAME ghs.google.com in POINTS TO... at first you will only see WWW in HOST and @ in POINTS TO. To get the result change the @ to ghs.google.com .

Web Hosting

STEP 4. when you're done in STEP 3, next is to set the Forwarding.

Below in the forwarding you will see Not forwarded (something like that..) and then click that one. After that, there is a new window will appear. click the box before the ENABLE FORWARDING, then type your URl ex. www.yoursite.com in the forward to next to HTTP:// and then choose 301 in your REDIRECT TYPE instead of 302. DONE

The FINAL STEP.

1. Log-in to your Blogger Account.
2. Go to Settings.
3. Go to Publishing.
4. Then Click ADVANCE SETTING.

  • In YOUR DOMAIN: Type in your Domain www.yoursite.com
  • In Use A Missing File Host?: Choose NO
  • Then Verify
  • Save Settings...
