This is really fantastic to tell you, today I did a small hack on Hosting Custom Domain with Blogger. You may be wondering why this topic name is given as Advanced Guide, because everyone knows if you have a control panel then you can easily mapped your domain to your blogger blog, its a common at all. Here is the tutorial for doing this Google Help Forum.
But when you just purchased a domain from some registrar they don not give you a free control panel by default, you have to buy a hosting plan then you will get control panel access. But in this tutorial I am going to mapped my custom domain to newly created blog in blogger using some really fantastic web application that you can get it for free.
This Gitspot.com is created using the same techniques. Here is the procedure for doing this
Steps are the Following....
