That's Blogger's problem!
(Update 2012/11): Blogger Engineering has provided a workaround for this problem, alongside whatever uncooperative registrar, such equally 1And1 - use of a (free) 3rd political party DNS host.
What non all spider web log owners realise is that the novel "CNAME" must live on only that - at that topographic point is no substitute here.
Some of the to a greater extent than patient spider web log owners convey made diverse suggestions, to teach us moving towards a solution.
- Blogger Support needs to run alongside the employment registrars, in addition to convince them to better their service.
- Blogger Support needs to render an alternate ownership verification physical care for - perhaps equivalent to the Google Webmaster Tools meta tag verification procedure.
- Blogger Support needs to build clean upwardly their "CNAME" setup instructions, in addition to take away scream of the employment registrars - hence hereafter spider web log owners won't select these registrars to host their domains.
About 3/4 of the employment reports convey come upwardly from customers of 1And1. Using that registrar equally a starting point, I contacted Blogger Support in addition to suggested the 3 alternatives, outlined above. The Blogger Engineer responding seemed to mean value that exclusively proposition #3 - cleanup of the per registrar "CNAME" improver instructions was straight off possible.
It's possible, then, that nosotros volition eventually run into less employment reports from 1And1 customers - in addition to hopefully others - equally Blogger Engineering cleans upwardly their domain setup instructions. The electrical current customers of uncooperative registrars, unfortunately, are unlikely to run into relief, for the close future.
This is an unfortunate province of affairs for these 1And1 customers. The best solution for them is to movement domain registration to another, to a greater extent than helpful, registrar. Unfortunately, most registrars don't permit domain registration transfers straight off subsequently initial buy - waiting periods of 30, or fifty-fifty threescore - days are normal. And domain registration fees are non refunded.
This leaves novel 1And1 customers, in addition to similar victims, alongside several options - none of them good. First, publish the spider web log dorsum to BlogSpot, hence the spider web log tin live on accessed past times existing readers.
- Wait thirty - threescore days, alongside the domain dead, hence transfer domain registration to a to a greater extent than helpful registrar in addition to activate.
- Purchase a minute domain, from a to a greater extent than helpful registrar.
- Forget virtually custom domain publishing.
- Move their spider web log hosting to a different service.
