5 Reasons To Drop “www” From Your Website Name

1. “www” is redundant.
2. “www” is hard to say.
3. “www” is a waste of time to type or write.
4. Think about it. Did you read something cool at “www.buzzdroid.com”, or did you read it at “buzzdroid.com”
5. “www” is old school and just no longer needed.

If you want to silently change your site from “www.domain.com” to “domain.com” you can do it with 3 lines of code. Place this code in your .htaccess file to redirect your “www.domain.com” to “domain.com” without disturbing visitors or your current search engine rankings:

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