Have you gone through many process but still the same?

Have you started blaming yourself for getting custom domain??

Are you frustrated??

Some of you may ask your self what is the frustration all about. When you get a domain and decide to start you job immediately, unfortunately you discovered your site won't open on Glo. This is where frustration comes in, when you try listed solutions but still the same.

Well we have pick up my pen to write this so you guys will not go through stress, we have some many steps online but few works

Before we move on, let know the reason why we experience this issues/fault

We should start with the introduction of Glo but it does not matter because we all know about this network, it one of the network that has large number of users

Why Is Blogger Custom Domain Not Working On Glo

This issue occurs on blogger that has custom domain and https activated (on), but do you know even when you put it in http, this problem still occurs

Meaning of HTTPS and HTTP

HTTPS - is a web referring protocol with a security

HTTP - is a web referring protocol without a security

These web referring protocol has their own advantages and disadvantages but users prefer using HTTPS, but all this problem those not occur on the free domain extension "domain.blogspot.com".

How To - "the beginning"

It is so easy to make your custom domain work on blog, but we have two options

1. Migrate to Wordpress
2. Connect Blogger to Cloudflare

The option is yours to pick after the explanation.......

• Migrate To Wordpress

This is the best idea but not the best option, that if you can afford to pay monthly

Moving your blog to wordpress.org (self-hosted) gives you more advantages over blogger, in wordpress you don't always deal with your html, just insert your plugin.

But if you can afford to pay for monthly hosting and plugin, then go for this second option. Like I said the choice is yours to make.

• Connect Blogger to Cloudflare

If you conclude using this option, that means you want to keep blogger moving, we let me say blogger is the best of all platform. All you need to provide is

• Get your device ready (mobile phone/computer)
• Access to Domain Registrar
• Gmail or Email Address
• Cloudflare Account (continue reading we will teach you how to open it)

Note: All steps must be followed till the end and do not miss any step.

What To Do Before Blogger Open On Glo Network

To Make you custom domain work on blogspot, you have to fix this first.

1. Check if your site is redirect and connected
2. Activate HTTPS on blogspot

 To activate your HTTPS on blogspot, sign-in blogger>>choose prefer account>>settings>>basic>>

Then choose "YES" for both "HTPS"  *availability and redirect* as shown on the image below

However, after doing this your site would be Redirect to HTTPS, so wait for some minutes for it to activate, after that go to the next step.
