    So I guess when you purchase a domain...your purchase the www.com only

    i purchased www.officialmixtapetutorials.com
    but site only works with the www.com
    but site does not come up with out the www.
    i been changeing my servers ,forwarding and all this and the page changes....first it was on a parked page and page does not come up
    HOw can i fix this so that no matter what you type
    officialmixtapetutorials.com
    and
    www.officialmixtapetutorials.com
    goes to same domain
    I read it was forwarding??? But what do I forward...i own the www... but forwarded officialmixtapetutorials.com to www.officialmixtapetutorials.com
    which does not work
    What setting should i use
    I have the layout at blogger
    and domain with godaddy
    help please

    I can pull your site up both with and without the www.
    Sometimes the non-www takes longer to propagate than the www.
    Wait for it to propagate before messing with the settings again.

    When we actually say that domain works with or without www, its actually adding a cname record to point www to the IP address where the domain is hosted.

    Earlier, when the hosting was not much advanced, some websites could only be accessed by typing www in front of them.
