This document provides instructions for setting up a custom domain with Blogger using GoDaddy domain registration. It involves: 1. Creating a CNAME record through GoDaddy's domain configuration tool to link the domain to Blogger. 2. Creating 4 A records through GoDaddy's DNS manager to direct the domain to Blogger's IP addresses. 3. Configuring the Blogger dashboard to publish the blog under the custom domain. 4. Optionally, adding Google Apps like Gmail to the domain by creating additional CNAME records through GoDaddy.

2. Create MX records for that Domain using this Automatic Configuration Tool
3. Now Signup for Google APPS using this link
4.When you finish the signup process, you will be taken to the Google APPS dashboard. You might be asked to
create a CNAME to verify your domain ownership.
In that case you should create a CNAME(Alias) Record with the following Details
Host: googlefffggghhh12345 [The one provided on your Google Apps dashboard for the verification
purpose.This is just a sample string.You should use the one provided and not this sample string :)] This is the
alias name.

You can add this Record in DNS Manager under CNAME(Alias) using the Quick Add button and don’t forget to
Save the Zone File.
5.Once you have verified the ownership, you can access each of the Google Applications. You can also change
them to custom URLs(that's why we created the CNAMES using the Godaddy tool in Step 1).You can change the
URL of the mail application to mail.yourdomain.com(To do that Click on the APP and then Click on the Link
