website location (how to add www.)?

    My site is https://www.capitalplasticsco.com

    If you do a search for say “custom globes”, which is something we’re trying to targert our SEO towards, we’re the only page on there without a google PageRank (we have N/A/ some have 0 or higher numbers), and we’re the only site that doesn’t have a https://www.website in it… Ours is just capitalplasticsco.com

    How do I fix that?

    Depends on your server and configuration.

    if it’s apache in .htaccess at the top you can try adding:

    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS}s ^on(s)|
RewriteRule ^ http%1://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

    the 301 is a perm redirect, which search engines will take notice of and change the www.

    Also Make sure you have a www cname in the DNS zone pointing to the sites IP..

    & sometimes if you’re on plesk or some sort of control panel, under domains > edit there’s often a drop drown as to wether or not you want to include the “www”
