I assume your wanting to self host your blogspot blog? but using your own domain name? or Are you referring to transfering your current blog to your own blog platform?

Did you already login to Blogger -> Settings -> Publishing

On that Page your going to see "Your Published on BlogSpot,".

Select "Custom Domain," and enter the domain name you registered...

Example: your-site-name.com or if you prefer www.your-site-name.com

Once you switch the DNS servers through blogspot for your domain name it may take up to 24 to 48 hours to fully propergate...so you may not be able to access your blog during this time ...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next login to your domain name registrar *Where you bought your domain name* and select the domain name and then select edit DNS Name Servers...

Now you need to create CNAME record for the domain name and DNS. If there is an exisiting CNAME Record delete it...and follow the instructions below.

How to create a CNAME Record ...

Log in to your account where you purchased the domain name, and go to the DNS management page.

Since CNAME records are special Domain Name Service (DNS) records, they may be in sections such as DNS Management or Name Server Management. It's possible that you will have to enable advanced settings to create a CNAME record.

Delete existing CNAME entries for the web address you want to use with your blog.

Before entering a new CNAME record to point to Google, you should first delete any existing entries for the same alias.

If you plan to transfer an existing web address to Blogger, you may want to copy any content currently at that address elsewhere first.

Use the information in the following table when you create your CNAME record.

Also when you enter your host name your-site-name.com decide weither you wish to use www.YOUR-DOMAIN-NAME.COM or YOUR-DOMAIN-NAME.COM

Be sure to set the Destination Name to the following ghs.google.com
