How Do I Get Rid of http://example.com

www.example.com also is indexed.

[sahuman]

On doing a site:widgets.com search on google, I see both results - with the www and one without it.

One, if I am concentrating on building inward links to [example.com,...] is the [example.com...] listing a cause for concern?

Two, how do I get the [example.com...] (This link leads to nowhere) out of Google's index?

Thank you!

Redirect all calls to root to the www subdomain via a .htaccess redirect. Try using the site search here, as this has been posted about before.

Change the "yourdomain" to your actual domain in the following and put it in your .htaccess

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}!^www\.yourdomain\.com
RewriteRule (.*) [yourdomain.com...] [R=301,L]
