    Hello there,
    When I type “mysite.com” in Google page I see that my site is listed but when I type www.mysite.com I see no results (no matching words). I see same no matching words found when I type http://www.mysite.com.
    Why is that?
    Thanks

    You are searching for the phrase "www.mysite.com". If this phrase isn't on your page and you don't have a lot of links with www.mysite.com as the anchor text it won't show up.

    Thank you very much for your replies.
    I submitted my URL again to google with http://www. (again) and now it comes up with www.mysite.com but still not with http://mysite.com or http://www.mysite.com.
    I thought if I have index file, I dont need to have/write http://www.mysite.com on my page to be shown in google search results.
    thanks for your help.
