Stop Blogger from Redirecting Blogspot to Country Specific URLs
Suppose you are French and you created a blog frenchlitgeek.blogspot.com, where you share your thoughts and ideas on French literature. Now, thanks to Google Country-based redirects, you may be directed to frenchlitgeek.blogspot.fr when you try to access your blog. The thing is, they really like.com.com and are not registered with the fr domain but are asked to do so. Your blog is sure to work, but you are wondering why.
The publication continued: “We know there are real practical benefits to allowing people to express themselves freely. It is important to explain unfamiliar, uncomfortable or controversial comments to people.
The company openly argues that people should be able to express themselves freely, but they believe that this is where the line should be drawn. And for companies from more than 100 countries around the world, it is difficult to decide where to set boundaries for companies like Google, each with its own national cultural norms and rules.
However, in almost every country where the solution is obvious, there are cases of child pornography.
How does Google fulfill its mission of "helping people create and communicate, especially access to and share information and feedback from around the world"?
One of the most difficult places for Google to solve free speech is Blogger, a content creation platform. Since Google cannot review your article before it is published, it is based on voice users who are responsible for the alarm if the layout is restricted to offensive content. It is also a complex subject that can be viewed as disgusting to one person or to another.
In other words, it's always something you do with Google.
Prior to January 9, 2012, before Google announced changes to the Blogger Censorship Forum. This change will use the country domain limited to Blogger Forum. This allows Google to censor certain country-specific content.
Google said in a statement: "Moving to local domains will allow us to continue to promote free speech and responsible publications, which will give us more flexibility to comply with the elimination requirements of local law."
Google's move comes after countries like India were pressured to search for inappropriate content on social media. The move follows Twitter's new censorship policy.
Google aims to "create and connect people, help them find and share information and opinions around the world", so deleting a recently banned post in a specific area is rare. Basically, the content may remain accessible, except in countries where the content is banned worldwide .
1. Reduce social stats . These are your Facebook likes, Google+ 1 likes, etc. From your blog posts. URLs in blog posts may be restricted as readers vary from place to place.
2. Problems in external forums . If you are using Disqus, for example in the comments section, you may have problems with different blog URLs, even if the page you enter is basically the same.
3. A small issue with AdSense . Some users have complained about revenue shortages when their pages are hosted on national domains.
4. Connect the problem to the juice . You want foreign websites to link to you, not your country URL. But the problem here is that you have no control over how others link to your page. You may be using a top-level domain or a national top-level domain.
This is a great solution, but do you always want your users to do it every time they visit your blog? A simple conversion script is sufficient to avoid this problem and for your website statistics. This is how it is:
1. Sign in to your Blogger account .
2. Click Template áˆá‰µ Edit HTML.
3. Find Open the search box in the HTML editor by clicking Ctrl + F.
4. After copying the transfer code below Tag
5. Click Save Template.

no more! When someone joins your blog, they end up in a higher domain, not a specific country.
Why did Google do this?
Google always supports the submission of comments on their official blog . The Freedom of Speech and Controversial Network, published in 2007, says: “If we all agree, the world will always be a very boring place. We understand that you have the right to comment.The publication continued: “We know there are real practical benefits to allowing people to express themselves freely. It is important to explain unfamiliar, uncomfortable or controversial comments to people.
The company openly argues that people should be able to express themselves freely, but they believe that this is where the line should be drawn. And for companies from more than 100 countries around the world, it is difficult to decide where to set boundaries for companies like Google, each with its own national cultural norms and rules.

What impact do country-based redirects have on your site?
Of course, not all website owners accept the change of country URL. One of the issues raised for editing is:1. Reduce social stats . These are your Facebook likes, Google+ 1 likes, etc. From your blog posts. URLs in blog posts may be restricted as readers vary from place to place.
2. Problems in external forums . If you are using Disqus, for example in the comments section, you may have problems with different blog URLs, even if the page you enter is basically the same.
3. A small issue with AdSense . Some users have complained about revenue shortages when their pages are hosted on national domains.
4. Connect the problem to the juice . You want foreign websites to link to you, not your country URL. But the problem here is that you have no control over how others link to your page. You may be using a top-level domain or a national top-level domain.
Stop turning bloggers into country-based domains
What can you do if the traffic to some countries affects important factors such as traffic and public relations equity and you need to prepare them properly? Well, fortunately Google offered a way to fix that. All you have to do is add ncr / a at the end of the URL - here ncr means "no redirection". So it basically goes to frenchlitgeek.blogspot.com/ncr/.This is a great solution, but do you always want your users to do it every time they visit your blog? A simple conversion script is sufficient to avoid this problem and for your website statistics. This is how it is:
1. Sign in to your Blogger account .
2. Click Template áˆá‰µ Edit HTML.
3. Find Open the search box in the HTML editor by clicking Ctrl + F.
