.htaccess

Hi guys, sorry i haven't been around much lately. been really busy getting the ATS ready for the 1st course next week.

I have a problem I need help with though...

I'm trying to edit my .htaccess file, so that I can make the url: freeadz.org redirect to www(dot)freeadz.org, so that I can avoid the whole 'Duplicate Content' issue with google.

How do I do this?

 

Code:

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

That should fix you up.

 

This is what I have in my public_html directory s the .htaccess info:

Code:

#RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/www\.freeadz\.org\/forum" [R=301,L]
#RewriteRule ^forums$ "http\:\/\/www\.freeadz\.org\/forum" [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^freeads.gfxnation.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.freeads.gfxnation.com$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^freeadz.org$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.freeadz.org$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^freeadz.org$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.freeadz.org$
RewriteRule ^forums$ "http\:\/\/www\.freeadz\.org\/forum\/" [R=301,L]

Options +FollowSymlinks
rewritecond % ^freeadz.org/forum/ [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.freeadz.org/forum/$1 [r=301,nc]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^freeadz.org$
RewriteRule ^forum\/?$ "http\:\/\/www\.freeadz\.org\/forum\/" [R=301,L]

So shouldn't that work? Or have I missed something?

 

Never mind, I managed to get it working. Thanx for the help
