Blogger had recently started to redirect blogspot blogs to country specific URL. This means that blog’s URL redirects from .com to country specific .in or .au or .uk etc. That means if you are reading blog from Australia than the URL would be redirected to .au. A report says that many countries are affected from this. These countries are

How to stop redirecting the URLs?
You can always view the .com part of any blogspot using /ncr with the URL as shown below:

With /ncr >> http://analytics.blogspot.com/ncr
Step 1
Goto ‘Design‘ from your blogger dashboard.
Step 2
Then select ‘Edit HTML’.
Step 3
Find <Head> and paste the code given below right below it.
<script type=’text/javascript’>
var str= window.location.href.toString();
if ((str.indexOf(‘.com/’))==’-1′) {
var str1=str.substring(str.lastIndexOf(“.blogspot.”));
if (str1.indexOf(‘/’)==’-1′) {
var str2=str1;
}
else {
var str2=str1.substring(0,str1.indexOf(‘/’)+1);
}
window.location.href =window.location.href.toString().replace(str2,’.blogspot.com/ncr/’);
}
