To accomplish the desired objective you need to add just three lines of code to your .htaccess file. For those of you that don’t know, an .htaccess file is a simple ASCII file that you can create in a text editor like Notepad. The actual name—or rather, the extension—of the file is .htaccess. It’s not file.htaccess, or index.htaccess, or anything else, it’s simply named .htaccess.

Look for it in your site’s root folder/directory (which in most cases would be ‘pubic_html’ or ‘www’ – It does not matter which directory you choose, as they are both the same thing. ). If it’s not there simply use a text editor, insert the code written below, save and upload to your website root. You are now all set to send users typing your website address without www (i.e. yourdomain.com) to the WWW version of your website. Here is the code:

RewriteEngine On

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

Easy, isn’t? Now to send visitors to the non-WWW version of your website. The following lines of code would automatically redirect users typing your domain name with www (i.e. www.yourdomain.com) to the non-WWW version:

RewriteEngine On

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

But this is something you should think about at the earlier stages (design and development) of your web site. Applying this after you’ve already been indexed may result in loss of PageRank or even a complete removal and then re-index of your website by the search engine bots.

Hope this’ll help… cheers

Once you get confirmation of your successful registration, your domain name is ready to use.

However, due to the nature of the DNS system it can take up to 48 hours for all the DNS servers across the Internet to “learn” and be able to “see” your domain.

What is URL forwarding and how does it work?

URL Forwarding allows you to redirect or ‘point’ your domain name to another location. Most often, this is used if you own multiple domain names and want to ‘point’ them to the same website.

What is a cloaked URL forwarding?

It’s similar to regular URL forwarding, except that your URL will never change in the address bar. When you use cloaked URL forwarding, your domainname.com forwards to your actual URL, but yourdomain.com stays in the address bar.
