And yes, GoDaddy does use Paypal, so no worries. And no, if you have 2 blogger accounts, you don't have to have 2 accounts in Godaddy. But you do need to have two domains, one per blog. :) Hope that helps you out. :) Hi Rannessa,

I was confused I already have an account in GoDaddy.com but I didn't purchase anything there, just sign in only. Is this tutorial only applicable to people who have already purchase own domain in GoDaddy.com? I want my blogger to be in .com but I'm scared in purchasing in GoDaddy.com. Can someone help me, I want to use only Paypal. I hope it uses Paypal. And also, does it apply to 2 blogger accounts? I have 2 blogger account and I want to make them .com, do I need to have two accounts in GoDaddy.com? Hello!

That means that it could be done wherever GoDaddy's servers are (like in the US) but it hasn't reflected (propagated) to wherever you are yet (like if you're in the Philippines). So even if you can access settings already, it doesn't necessarily mean you can see its effects right away. You really should wait 24 hours because it takes time for the settings to propagate.

Neither has changing the "forwarding" settings. I thought to myself maybe I should wait 24hrs because they do say it may take 24hrs to update the settings, but supposedly Godaddy says it is already done since I am able to change the settings again. I am lost on what to do. This sucks, but thanks so much for this post. It was helpful. So far, it this has not worked for me. Neither has changing the "forwarding" settings.

I bought a domain thru google/godaddy (custom domain) and had an error during payment confirmation. This caused a problem, now my new domain name wasn’t set up automatically.

When I try to type in the new domain name in the ‘already have a custom domain’(advanced settings) box it would prompt ‘another blog is hosted in this domain.

Sorry to bother you about this but I am just trying all possibilities.

Thanks

Thanks again for sharing your experience in this subject. I´m not a techno girl too, that´s why I´ve been hesitating in buying my own domain. <br/>I´ve asked a blogger friend for advice and she recommended Godaddy as well, but I read a few negative comments in blogs that review hosting services and I was confused. <br/>I´m going to try the way you do it because it seems a very good and cheap solution, once I only want to use my blogs. I´ll let you know how it went when I´m done. Cheers! Hi Flisha. Thanks again for sharing your experience in this subject.
