http://www. vs Http: How Do I redirect ?

[milobloom]

I don't know if this makes a difference or not.
According to my Seo person he's not sure but it would be better off fixing.

http://nothingbutcostumes.com
to redirect to http://www.nothingbutcostumes.com

Is this done in Zen or do I speak to my Host Provider?

You can alter both config files to achieve desired result.

I have everything set in my config files that way.

What I am trying to accomplish is that when you just enter
nothingbutcostumes.com in the url bar it goes to

http://nothingbutcostumes.com/
(However anything you do next goes to a http://www.nothingbutcostumes.com....)
Page.

What I wanted to see if I can make it that when a person enters
nothingbutcostumes.com in the url bar it automatically adjusts to
www.nothingbutcostumes.com

Just like if you enter yahoo.com in the url window it converts it to
http://www.yahoo.com/

Put this in your root level htaccess:

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R,L]

obviously changing domain.com to your domain.

The code you gave me did not work

But a the link showed me to what I was after.

Adding this (Which is the only thing in mine now ) .htaccess file

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^nothingbutcostumes.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.nothingbutcostumes.com/$1 [L,R=301]

Thanks for the help
