Edit
With Google Domains registered custom domains becoming to a greater extent than normal, nosotros are seeing 1 strange attending to detail, expressed every bit confusion inwards with custom domain publishing. This is 1 item that may non demand immediate attention, however.
Long ago, amongst custom domains purchased in addition to setup nether "Buy a domain", a properly published weblog e'er targeted "ghs.google.com".

Or maybe
What is "ghs.googlehosted.com" - or to a greater extent than specifically, what is the divergence betwixt "ghs.google.com" in addition to "ghs.googlehosted.com"?
Let's await at a distich of Dig logs, using the Kloth.Net Dig utility.
and
Here, nosotros encounter that "ghs.l.google.com" in addition to "ghs.googlehosted.com" are, essentially, the same host - 2 names pointing to "74.125.136.121". "ghs.googlehosted.com" land omits the extra "CNAME" referral to "ghs.l.google.com", used past times "ghs.google.com".
