SEO friendly 301 redirect

[Randall]

Sometimes there are questions that some people want to show their site only in www. version not without the www.

You can use the code below in your .htaccess file and it will redirect to www. version site.

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

Yeah, 301 redirect are SEO friendly...
But while implementing 301 redirects you should be very careful as if anything gets wrong your site may get out of search results :gasp:
