		<description>Thanks Shelsea for leaving the comment. 

Well, first, as for problem of people can not reach your website unless the type in the &quot;www&quot;, I believe this is because of the way your DNS for the domain is configuerd. Make sure you have CNAME records for both the domain.com and www.domain.com! A good way is also using the wildcards like *.domain.com in the DNS; this will make sure that requests for both the www and without the www to be redirected to the blogger server.
I just did a whois on your domain and see that you only have a CNAME for www.yourdomain.com redirect to ghs.google.com, just add another CNAME for yourdomain.com redirecting to the same ghs.google.com and this should do the trick ;-)



As for applying my method of removing the &#039;www&#039; from the URL when a request is done using the &#039;www&#039;, unfortunately, this will not work in the case of Blogger due to the fact that you do not have access to web directory; as this is hosted by Google&#039;s servers.
However, I believe that blogger&#039;s settings should allow you to choose the custom URL and enforce that by default in the configurations. </description>

		<description>My blog is hosted on Blogger but I recently changed its URL to .com only.
The thing is, browsers won&#039;t find my blog if I don&#039;t type in www.

I have a few questions.
1. Does this method work for blogs/sites hosted on Blogger?
2. If yes, where do I find the root of web directory to paste the code?

I appreciate your help.</description>
