In China, the Blogger free blogging platform is inaccessible. However, it is possible to access it by binding a domain name. After logging in to Blogger, go to settings, then publishing, and customize the domain by entering your domain name. Save the settings. The official requirement is to record the domain name's CNAME to ghs.google.com. However, the issue arises because the IP address used by ghs.google.com is dynamic, and sometimes it may be blocked, causing the Blogger blog to be inaccessible. To resolve this, use the PING command to find a reachable IP address by pinging ghs.google.com. Then, perform domain name resolution by setting the A record of the Blogger blog domain to the reachable IP address, such as 142.251.42.243.

As everyone knows, Blogger's free blog cannot be accessed in China. However, we can access it by binding a domain name. After logging into Blogger, go to Settings - Publishing - Custom Domain, and enter your domain name in "Your Domain". Save the settings.
The official will require you to add a CNAME record for the domain name to ghs.google.com. However, there is a problem. The IP address used by ghs.google.com is dynamic. Sometimes we may find that the Blogger blog cannot be accessed because it is assigned a blocked IP address. So now we need to specify the IP address. Use the PING command to find an accessible IP address. The command format is PING ghs.google.com. As long as it can be PINGed domestically, it can be accessed.
Next, you need to do domain name resolution. Resolve the A record of the Blogger blog domain name you want to bind to an IP address that can be accessed in China, such as 142.251.42.243. Remember, it should be an A record.
