www. or no www. that is the question?
- SEO |
I am having some issues with having no www. and having www. at the beginning of my domain.
When I set up a wordpress site using cpanel, it automatically has NO www., so I change it to www. in the wordpress settings and all seems fine.
I then submit my site to webmasters and it seems to want to display the site as without www. unless I submit both sites (even though it is actually only one site) only then can I set it to show the preferred domain as www.
I am now seeing that my site is indexed as no www. rather than with www. and my with www. site has disappeared.
I was on page one for the with www. but have no completely gone out of the index and only appear on page 65 for without www.!
I am confused :confused: and I bet you are too after that lot! But if anyone can shed any light I would be really grateful. Would all this confusion effect my rank? I seem to have double the pages indexed as it is showing both sites, and submitting 2 sitemaps - sitemap.xml and sitemap.xml.gz? Why does it do this?
Thanks in advance
