How to permantly redirect www to non www?

I can't find the write code that I will add to my .htaccess file. I know seo experts in this forum can help me with this.

How can I permanently redirect all pages of my site from the url with www to with no www

for examample www.mydomain.com - domain.com , www.domain.com/page.html - domain.com/page.html

thanks in advance

 

I never understood why people want to remove their www. from the URL - then again I don't know why I want to add it. lol I like it.

Anywho, here's the code to do the exact opposite; add the www. Alter it a little and test out on your page. I hope this helps as a starting point.



RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.munnyness.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.munnyness.com/$1

 

you can do 301 Permanent Redirection From Non-www to www.

 

How can I do that?

 

PionyIto, just put the two lines of rules/code that mbreeze supplied you with into your root .htaccess file, and it'll do exactly what you've asked

Hope this clears it up

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

Code (markup):

That should do the trick.

 

Put this code on top line of your .htaccess file

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

Code (markup):

This will redirect www to non-www

 

Contact your domain hoster. Many provide this option as part of their services. I use GoDaddy and when I set up my domain with them I configured "www" to always point to the non-"www" domain name which is the domain name I use.
