    Update the DNS Setting I have created a blog. Lets say its called joebloggs.com


    I would like to use this domain that i have registered with blacknight to be my domain name for my blog. I understand how to change the settings on blogger (seems ok), but I cant follow the instructions listed on the google help site below.

    What are the steps needed to update the settings through blacknight?





    "DNS stands for Domain Name System, and a DNS server determines what site a given address takes you to. So far, you have a domain name but none of the servers on the internet know what to do with it yet. To take care of this, you need to do two things:
    • Create a CNAME record for your blog's address, which should be a subdomain of the form www.example.com.
      To create a CNAME record for your domain with the DNS, associating your domain with: ghs.google.com.
