Forwarding non-www to www Godaddy

I'm trying to redirect my website's non-www to www, for example http://domain.com to http://www.domain.com using Godaddy's domain manager. I used the instructions here http://community.godaddy.com/help/article/422 but I just get the message "This website is temporarily unavailable, please try again later." Is it actually possible using this method? Is there anything else I need to do?

 

You can do this with .htaccess, just google for this. This is a very common topic.

 

we can not redirect non (www) version of website to (www) version of website using domain hosting at godady. it is only possible when you purchase website hosting. with updating the server.

 

Use this in your .htaccess
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com [nocase]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [last,redirect=301]
