Hey there, i registered a domain at godaddy and connected it with my bluehost webspace. If i enter www.domain.com it changes automatically to domain.com
How can i get a www in front of -->domain.com?
Cause i think it's important for the backlinks?

The support couldn't help me...

  • Have you built a website yet or is it just the domain name?

    If you have built a site, is it with Wordpress or is it HTML?

    If Wordpress, just adjust your settings in the admin panel. If html, set your .htaccess file.

  • Code:
    RewriteEngine on


    # Add a leading www to domain if one is missing.  #
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
    


    # Add a trailing slash if needed                  #
    #RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/[^.]+[^/]$
    #RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1/ [R=301,L]
    This might help, stick it in a file named simply '.htaccess' and put it in the root of your site. (The trailing slash bit is optional)
