    When submitting to directories, sites, etc I have been including the www.

    I noticed when checking at www.mypageraking.org that my site has 140+ backlinks with the www included, yet it only has 2 without

    since you've been using the www version,you may want to do a 301 redirect.

    it doesn;t really matter you use www or not, but it does matter which one you use and stick with it. since you are using www, keep using www
