⭐ How to Connect Your Hosting.kr Domain to Google Blogger (Complete Step-by-Step Guide)
Learn how to connect a custom domain purchased from Hosting.kr to your Google Blogger site for better SEO, branding, and AdSense approval.
1. Why Connecting a Custom Domain to Google Blogger Matters
A custom domain is one of the most important upgrades you can make to your Blogger site. Instead of using a default Blogspot address, a personal domain gives your site:
- Higher credibility and professionalism
- Better SEO ranking potential
- A stronger brand identity
- Higher chances of Google AdSense approval
- Easier sharing and memorability
If you’ve already purchased a domain from Hosting.kr, the next step is to properly connect it to Google Blogger. This guide walks you through the entire process using real screenshots.
2. Open Blogger Settings and Enter Your Custom Domain
Go to:
Blogger → Settings → Publishing → Custom domain
Don’t worry — this is normal.
The message simply means you need to add the required DNS records in Hosting.kr.
Blogger will show you:
- One CNAME (www → ghs.google.com)
- One CNAME for ownership verification (randomized)
You will add these in the next step.
3. Go to Hosting.kr DNS Settings
Log in to Hosting.kr → My Domain → select → name/DNS
Scroll down to DNS Record
This is where you will add all records required by Google.
4. Add Four Google A Records
Blogger requires four A records pointing to Google IP addresses.
In Hosting.kr click: + add New Record → "A" Record
Fill in the following four entries:
| Type | Host | Value |
|---|---|---|
| A | @ | 216.239.32.21 |
| A | @ | 216.239.34.21 |
| A | @ | 216.239.36.21 |
| A | @ | 216.239.38.21 |
5. Add the Two CNAME Records Shown in Blogger
Return to Blogger’s error message and copy:
-
CNAME #1
Host:www
Destination:ghs.google.com -
CNAME #2 (ownership verification)
Host (example):gv-xxxxxx
Destination (example):gv-xxxxxx.dv.googlehosted.com
Add both exactly as shown.
This confirms to Google that you are the true owner of the domain.
6. Save DNS, Return to Blogger, and Click "Save"
Go back to Blogger and click Save.
If DNS is correct, the domain will save successfully.
If it does not save, wait 5–10 minutes and try again — DNS propagation may be in progress.
7. Enable Domain Redirection
Once the domain is saved, activate:
-
Domain Redirect
This ensures that visitors who type the non-www version (e.g., unicosmos.pe.kr) automatically redirect to
8. Enable HTTPS and HTTPS Redirection
Google automatically issues a free SSL certificate, but it may take a few minutes.
Turn on:
- HTTPS use
- HTTPS redirection
If it shows “대기 중 (Processing)”, wait a little and refresh (about 15min).
When it becomes “사용 가능(Active)”, your domain is fully secured.
9. Your Domain Connection Is Complete
Once HTTPS becomes active and the site loads correctly under:
your domain connection is 100% complete.
You now have:
- A professional domain
- Full HTTPS encryption
- Improved SEO
- Better structure for Google AdSense approval
You’re ready to continue building your blog for long-term growth.
