    On my site http://www.zelune.net, I origionally marketed it as http://zelune.net.

    I submitted to like 1000 directories without www, and later found it was best to use www.

    www.zelune.net 229 backlinks, predicted PR4, lots of strong links
    zelune.net 946 backlinks, predicted PR5, TONS of littler links


    What is the best way to convert all non www to www, or should I just leave what is already linking to zelune.net, and just "Start over" on www.zelune.net?

    Is there a fix that will make ALL those links help the domain with www?

    *Sorry for a confusing thread, kinda hard to explain in writing*

    It's not best to have www, It's just best to pick one and stick to it.

    put this on your htaccess file to redirect non www to www
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.co.uk
    RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]
    Code (markup):
    Obviously change it to your domain name

    that redirect that stox posted should fix any problems that you have. You should also use Google Webmaster Tools and tell google which version of your domain you prefer.
