Hi,

This topic here deals with removing the www: precharge.net/forums/site-server-administration/13951-remove-www.html

But I want my sites to have the www since i have gone with it for far too long to give it up now.

Thanks.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^\domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Ahh, gotta love mod_rewrite ;)

Using the mod_rewrite is so important. You might always link to your site the same way, but others may not. To keep all links pointing to the same site you need the rewrite. Without it, search engines will treat the www and non-www as two different addresses.

Therefore, no matter how hard or tough it is, as a webmaster we need to master the mod_rewrite skill, and this will surely help us in the website editing...
