Blogger outages and problems
In the past 24 hours, 1 user report came in for Blogger. Counting only the 15-minute windows with a spike big enough to count as an outage, that comes to 100.00% uptime for the day.
The busiest 15-minute window had 1 report, about 4 hours ago. That stays below our outage threshold, so it doesn't count as downtime.

How to fix Blogger not working
Blogger is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach blogger.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Open Blogger in a private window
In Chrome, click the three-dot menu, then New Incognito window. Sign in with the same Google account and open the post you were editing; if Save or Publish works here, an extension or stored cookie is the problem.
Sign out of Blogger then back in
Click your profile picture in the top right of the dashboard, choose Sign out, and sign back in with the account that owns the blog. A stale session can loop the editor or send you back to the sign-in page. Open Posts and publish a draft after you return.
Switch the Blogger editor to HTML view
Open the post in the editor. Click the HTML view tab next to Compose, copy the post text somewhere safe, then switch back to Compose and try Save again. If the editor still stalls, paste the text into a new post.
Clear cookies and site data
Open Chrome, click the three-dot menu, then Settings, Privacy and security, Delete browsing data, and pick Cookies and other site data. Clear it. Sign back in to Blogger; this removes saved preferences, so you may need to set your comment and publishing options again.
While Blogger is down: what to use instead
- Draft in Google Docs If the post editor won't load or keeps failing to save, write in Google Docs and paste the text into Blogger once the editor works again, so a lost autosave doesn't cost you the draft.
- Official status page Check the Blogger status page to see if Google has posted about a known problem.
- Medium When a post can't wait, publish a short version on Medium and share that link with your readers until your blog is back.
- Wayback Machine If you only want to read a post, the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine often has saved copies of public Blogspot pages that you can open while the live blog won't load.
Fix Blogger on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone
Blogger on Windows

- Check
- Try loading blogger.com in a mobile browser to see if the outage is specific to the Blogger Android app. You can also check if other Google apps on your device are experiencing connection issues.
Blogger on iPhone and iPad
- Fix
- Update the Blogger app from the App Store, or clear Safari's history and website data if you are accessing the site via your mobile browser. Ensure that cellular data permissions are enabled for Blogger in your iOS settings.
- Check
- Open Safari or Chrome on your iOS device to see if the Blogger dashboard loads, or check if the Blogger app fails to sync your drafts.
What happens when Blogger goes down
Blogger is Google's hosted blogging platform. Writers and small publishers use it to draft posts and publish to a custom domain; an outage interrupts that work.
Publishing a post often fails first. The editor may refuse to save a draft or stall on image uploads; the dashboard sometimes loads slowly or not at all. Comments may not appear, and custom domains can stop resolving even when the blog itself is reachable. Trouble is often partial and can be regional; one blog or account breaks while another works.

How we track Blogger
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Blogger, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Blogger, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Blogger's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
