Moving Blissful Life to a Domain Name I Control
I’ve owned a domain name (learnlearn.in) for a long time now. Yet, my blog Blissful Life hosted on blogspot at asdofindia.blogspot.com was my primary means of writing till today.
I had moved to using learnlearn.in a few months back but I was using it mainly like a wiki to collect knowledge and insights.
Today, I added the blog.learnlearn.in subdomain to Blissful Life. And it was smooth! I just added a CNAME entry to my DNS pointing blog
to ghs.google.com
and voilah!
Blogger seems to be redirecting all articles to the new URL without any problem.
Now, should Blogger be shut down by Google, all I need to do is parse the XML of the blog backup and set up the posts to be served at the correct URLs.
I finally have a fully decentralized Web presence - a website, a blog, and my social feed.
