The URL of my website is http://esgameservers.com. Some how, it ended up that way. However, many links to my site point to http://www.esgameservers.com. Is this a problem? Will I not get credit for the links?
Yes it is. Put this in your .htaccess file : RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^esgameservers.com [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.esgameservers/$1 [L,R=301] Code (markup): It will redirect the non-www version to the www one
Will this cause PR to pass on also? Im a little confused about this and have heard different things. What if you use DNS redirect?
Yes it will. The PR will not be split between 2 urls, all of it will go to www.example.com. Don't be confused whatever you heard, a 301 redirect is the proper way to go. Don't know about DNS redirect, I never use that, no need to for this issue imho.
