My Domain

[jim73bad]

Hi there all
I have just started a site up and bought the domain Garden Furniture uk, the site is up and running but when you type the full url in the site appears but the www disappears from the url.
I have just checked where i bought the domain and it's still parked.
Can anyone tell me if this is ok????

Cheers

Jim

probably just a host record redirecting it.
You can check with the domain manager.

The site's working ok but i just wanted to make sure this is ok

 

[mattfca]

yeah its ok. I think you want a 301 redirect so google and such dont think you have two sites and cache/rank wrong or something like that.

wait for someone who is legit seo to chime in though

Thanks for the reply, still not sure i'm happy about this......
Can't understand why the domain is still parked

 

[jlknauff]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^gardenfurniture.uk.\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.gardenfurniture.uk.com /$1 [R=301,L]

May need some tweaking because of the .uk.com, but that's the general idea. Put that in your .htaccess file and let me know if it works.

i've passed it on to the site programer/designer, i'll let you know how he gets on.

Many thanks
