Google lost control of the blogspot.in domain

Those who had a blog on his site of Google in India, they missed it! Millions of Blogger pages are currently inaccessible as Google seems to have lost control of “blogspot.in” URLs.

Of course the blogs are still there and you can access them by changing 'blogspot.in' to 'blogspot.com' but for now, your browser doesn't automatically redirect to the working URL.

If you don't run a WHOIS for the address it reveals that Google no longer owns the domain. The company Internet of India, which controls the ".in" seems to be someone else's domain, or did Google forget to renew it?

According to the screenshot above, there was an update to the registry last month, however, it is not clear when Google lost control of the domain.

Whatever the reason, Google should monitor and know when its domain expires. The problem may be temporary, but it raises many questions about Google's commitment to its customers who use Blogger.

If you use a blog regularly, an alternative is to host it on your own domain. Of course we would expect Google Webmaster to do better.
