Subject: Blogger, Custom Domain, Google Apps Problem
I decided to buy custom domain thru blogger.

It worked intially but it has stopped working now.

A few things happened;

Firstly, when I go to the custom domain, sometimes it went to my
blogger site http://fluffythefword.blogspot.com, but sometimes it went
to 404 Not Found page.

Then I thought, try forwarding the googleapps page directly to
http://fluffythefword.com to see if it works. It does work... even now
after I disabled the page and changed the googleapps page to something
else.

My question is can I use my custom domain for my blogger? If yes, how?
What do I do?

Please help as I'm getting really frustrated.

Thanks in advance.

This is a bad week to ask for general guidance in this subject, as
there are many broken custom domains right now.  I have one of such.

In general, you get best custom domain result from using a "CNAME"
referral for "www.fluffythefword.com", and a Google Apps redirect for
"fluffythefword.com".

I'm not sure how GooglePages fits into this.  You may be creating
complications by involving it, but I'll do my best to work around the
complications, if you're patient with me.

Subject: Re: Blogger, Custom Domain, Google Apps Problem
So Have I... I created bought a custom domain through blogger and made
a lot of effort to write a blog piece. Now that blog piece won't
publish, and when I click on "View Blog" I get the 404 Not Found Page;
it says "The site you have requested could not be found. (404)"

I'm not sure if this is a common experience, but after much
navigating, it doesn't seem like the help people actually provide a
way of emailing them to ask them for help, so I've had to come here.
Is personal help/customer service dead? Is there an issue of an
available refund here?
