Site indexed incorrectly..?

by mrgee Posted: 15 years ago 4 replies

I have one site that is not performing as well I would expect.. Now I just noticed that in google the site is listed without the www.. so there is just the domain name.. Could this be part of the problem with a low ranking and if so what can I do about it?

I think you should do some setting in your domain manage panel. 301 Redirect http://yoursite[dot]com to http://www[dot]yoursite[dot]com

Yes, in your case, visitors can visit your site through 2 url address, but for the same content, this is not friendly to search engine.

just use google webmaster tool and claim both with www. and without www then change the setting in GWT to treat both w/and w/out as the same site.
