Other details:
My blogger site: http://sandbox-addedbits.blogspot.in/
My Domain with www: http://www.addedbits.com/ [Note: Currently showing 404 - page not found]
Domain without www: http://addedbits.com/ [Note: Currently showing welcome page]
Also, find the screenshot of
Blogger's Third-party domain settings:

My Domain name verification has also failed using all the methods mentioned by Blogger.
Let me know if anyone can help me to setup custom domain name for blogger site.
Thank you in advance.

I managed to fix the Issue yesterday. While investigating I noticed the my domain name was assigned 4 name servers. The two nameservers shown on settings tab were different from the two nameservers shown on DNS Zone file tab due to which Google blogger was unable to verify domain ownership [Note: I have attached the screenshot of the issue for users reference]. After replacing the two nameservers on "settings" tab with the two nameservers on "DNS Zone File" tab the issue got fixed.

Hope this information might help others!

The same problem I was facing but it was four years back and in that time i did not have any solution for the problem, so I got help from forums as well as support team of the domain registrar, even I got help from the article.

Let netlify use a subdomain thats also used on a different site

(how) is this possible:
I have 2 netlify sites main-app and sub-app.
main-app has a custom domain (www.main.com).
I now want to make the 2nd site sub-app using the custom domain sub.main.com but Netlify forbids this and notes that I already use the respecity domain main.com.
Any help?
It is possible to use subdomains. It is discussed in detail in their docs: https://docs.netlify.com/domains-https/custom-domains/
You already have a Netlify subdomain where your app is hosted, of type myapp.netlify.app. Now you need to point your subdomain to this instance. If you use for example Namecheap, you do it like this: https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx/9776/2237/how-to-create-a-subdomain-for-my-domain/
Here is Netlify's instructions for doing this if you don't host your domain with them (aka not using Netlify DNS) https://docs.netlify.com/domains-https/custom-domains/configure-external-dns/
Similar DNS editing as in Namechrap will be seen on all other domain hosts. Once this is set up and has had time to propagate (give it 10 minutes to an hour) you proceed with hooking it up in Netlify. Your error message should now be gone.
Remember that you need different DNS records on your domain host for the main app and the sub app.
You can add a subdomain in the netlify panel and in you DNS manager / hosting provider add the records as CNAME with the domain provided by netlify.

Create a Github Pages subdomain while main domain is elsewhere

I am trying to host a custom subdomain with Github Pages.
My apex domain (http://example.com) is pointing to a custom server (not Github Pages).
I am trying to get a subdomain of this (http://subdomain.example.com) to host a Github Pages site off a project page.
I have created a CNAME record for the subdomain pointing to http://username.github.io but it comes up with this error:
Your site's DNS settings are using a custom subdomain,
subdomain.example.com, that's set up as an A record. We
recommend you change this to a CNAME record pointing at [YOUR
USERNAME].github.io. For more information, see
https://help.github.com/articles/setting-up-a-custom-domain-with-github-pages/.
I have also tried moving the project to its own Github organisation and pointing the CNAME to organisationname.github.io but it has the same result.
In both instances I have waited 24 hours for the DNS to propagate.
I have tried following the official tutorials and searching in StackOverflow for answers but have not been able to find anything for this situation.
Is this even possible to do or do the A records for my http://example.com domain affect all the subdomains below it?
Found a solution with Github support.
Turns out the answer is yes you can. I just had my apex domain configured to use Cloudflare and totally forgot about it. I made the changes described in my original post in Cloudflare and it all worked fine.

How to share our post in linkedin from our site using shareArticle

I have to share the profile to linked in from my website.I tried shareArticle in linkedin url.It is not working for localhost.What i have to do?. Here sharelink is the link that will hold the candidate profile

Since localhost is not available on the Internet, it isn't possible to LinkedIn to access it (which it needs to in order to fetch the preview data).
So you can't.
Publish your site on the Internet instead.

Issues getting to the right file when using a google domain pointing to github pages

Apologies in advance for the painfully newbie question but I am really stuck here.
I have a Google hosted domain: techpalewi.international
That I need to link to file, which is hosted on my github user page: porcoespinho.github.io/techpalehui_international_website/scripts/index.html
So far, I have:
Created a CNAME file on my Github project, pointing to the google domain (techpalewi.international)
I have created the Custom resource records as advised in github pages (i.e. A pointing to 192.30.252.153 and 192.30.252.154. And a CNAME record pointing to my github pages project repo: porcoespinho.github.io.)
So far I can get to the right page if I type:
http://techpalewi.international/scripts/index.html
but not if I only type the domain name:
http://techpalewi.international/
Can you please advise how I can get to the right file only pointing the domain name?
Thank you,
Luis
Kudos to Ryan Burgess # Netflix who kindly answered this question offline:
It turns out that when one uses a custom domain on GitHub pages, it defaults to landing the project's root page. Thus, the most efficient solution was to move the HTML and CSS files out of the scripts directory and into the root directory. This did the trick masterfully !!!!

Chrome extension inline install not working in verified IP site

I have verified my IP (not the domain) using webmasters tool and it successfully verified.
I have added <link> and called chrome.webstore.install() and getting this error:
Inline installs can only be initiated for Chrome Web Store items that have one or more verified sites.
I think I should call chrome.webstore.install() from subdomain or a page. So I am calling from a page (index.html) but url is just the IP.(like http://52.1.165.721/#/home) (Angular UI routing and index is default page.)
My questions are:
1.I didn't have a domain yet. Is that a problem?
2.I have to install extension from home page itself. I got some websites (eg: https://adblockplus.org/) as examples. But don't know how to do that. Please help.
I went through
How to test inline installation of Chromium/Chrome extensions locally? ,
Chrome Inline Install for extension not working and
chrome.webstore.install(); Not working on verified site
So as Xan said I added Website link and didn't fill Verify that this is an official item for a website you own: because my domain was not listing there.
The problem was I uploaded extension using my work account and verified site using my personal account. So I added my other account as an owner with help of https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/2454036?vid=1-635766230904751668-2044003462 and refresh list does the trick.
So I selected the verified site from drodown and after a two minutes inline install worked.
Turns out:
1.We don't need to buy the domain. IP will work.
2.Calling chrome.webstore.install() from home page itself will work too. (Url doesn't matter I think)
