How can I create a 301-Google friendly redirect to redirect visitors from a Blogger/Blogspot website to my own domain?
The visitors of the posts of the old domain:
http://example.blogspot.com/2014/03/blogpost-title.html
should be redirected to the new domain:
http://example.com/blogpost-title/
How do I do that with Blogger/Blogspot?
Edit: In the new domain I don't want to use blogspot - I use my own hosted WordPress instead.
Generally, blogs are hosted by Google at a subdomain of blogspot.com (for example: www.blog.blogspot.com). However, they can also be hosted on a registered custom domain (like www.example.com). In this tutorial, you will learn how to point a domain to blogger.
Hi, This "Redirect domain" setting is activated only when you add a custom domain to your blog. It is used to redirect your domain without www to the www version. There is a meta tag in your template that redirects to another website. Delete it from the template source or change the template to the default one.
On Blogger you can set up custom redirects to keep the traffic flowing and avoid visitors seeing a 404 error “not found” page when looking for something. Bloggers Custom Redirects only supports redirection within the same blog URL, so this isn't suitable if you've changed your blog domain name.
In blogger dashboard's setting tab there is option for publishing where you can add your custom domains. Here is the nice post from google

Just adding your target domain as a "custom domain" will set up the redirect, even if that domain doesn't point back to Blogger as the help page presumes it will.
