Canonicalization issue

Hi

does anyone know where i would fix this

•http://www.scruffygirl.com/store/cms-display/splash.html
and
http://scruffygirl.com/store/cms-display/splash.html
should resolve to the same URL, but currently do not.

thanks mark

Re: Canonicalization issue

What control panel are you using?  What do your DNS entries look like?

Re: Canonicalization issue

If you are on a linux box you can add these two lines to your .htaccess file and any address not starting with www. will be redirected:

Code:

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

So... http://scruffygirl.com/store/cms-display/splash.html becomes http://www.scruffygirl.com/store/cms-di … plash.html

Re: Canonicalization issue

Yes, without this google may index 2 versions of your site; a www and non-www version. You should also specify in google webmaster tools - under configuration -> settings - your preferred domain (Display URLs as wwwscruffygirl.com).
