How to remove .blogspot.com from the blog address

This is very very simple and can be done with in a day. I will explain step by step :

1. Lets say you have have a blog names
xyz.blogspot.com and you want it to be
http://www.xyz.com
2. First thing to do is to register a domain
http://www.xyz.com with any webhosting company. There are thousands available online.
3. Very important thing. Register the domain with the provider who gives the domain forwarding facility free. There are many of them who are doing this.
4. Once the domain is registerd just login in your control panel (this will be provided by the company through whom you have registerd the domain).
5. Go to domain forwarding settings and put your blog address xyz.blogspot.com there.


6. Activate URL Masking. (this is very important)
7. Now what happens is when someone puts
http://www.xyz.com in browser the domain forwading settings will forward the requestion xyz.blogspot.com
8. Now URL Masking comes in the picture as when user reaches to your blog xyz.blogspot.com he wont see this address in the browser. instead he will see
http://www.xyz.com bcoz of the url masking feature.
