How to go to blogspot.com and What website ccTLD addresses does my Blogger blogspot.com address have ?

What website addresses does my blogspot.com address have ?



Google's blogger has many different country level domains for each single blogspot domain.

How to stop blogspot from redirecting to a country domain ?

If you type /ncr just after the domain name for example- http://johndasfundas.blogspot.com/ncr , then it will not redirect to your local domain. 

Anyway, as a blog master your shouldn't let the visitors follow any boring way to prevent redirection. Because you can control the redirection by the code below! Okay let's try: 

  1. Make sure you're signed in to your blogger's control panel I mean design or dashboard.
  2. Now go to the template option. (Backup your template if necessary)
  3. Click on Edit HTML. Now you can see the code of your template. 
  4. Hit on the template box and Press Ctrl+F to enable search within the code box.
  5. find the of your template and then copy the code below and place it just below the head tag. (Look at the image below)
  6. Save the template. Done! 


BUT Why do this ?

The ccTLDs were made by Blogger to make country specific censorship easier.

Some countries are quick to censor content posted on blogs and since many such governments do not know much about how the internet works, they simply ask the ISPs to blobk the whole domain.

They issue the order, block blogspot.com, and POOF ! All blogspot blogs are blocked.

What happens when Blogger is banned in a country ? 

Naturally when blogger is banned by the Govt. of a country the visitors from that country will not be able to see your site. But they will be able to visit the .com version of your site by  using /ncr just after the domain. But if you use the above code in your site, visitors will automatically be able to visit your site!

I think now you understand the importance of using this code


Here is a list of blogspot domains.
