    Hello,

    I have checked to my control panel of my web host. That my domain.com , www.domain.com and store.domain.com is already redirected to domain.com using 301 redirect. But in Google i have separe listing for domain.com and www.domain.com

    Should i need to redirect all 3 to www.domain.com
    Is this better. Today domain.com has more pages indexed than www.domain.com

    Will it affect ranking??

    Hi,

    It can take weeks, if not longer for a 301 redirect to kick in fully.

    In any case, I'd use a server header tool to check that the redirect is working properly. I'd recommend using software "webbug" if you are making frequent checks.

    Cheers,
    Paz.

    Keep in mind what the ultimate goal of high ranking in Google is - traffic. If a user clicks on any of the links you have 301'd, they'll still get to your site.
