I have a website that is a small, one page html/css/js site. I want the viewers to be able to view the same site whether they are coming from www.domain.com or just domain.com, without redirection. Is this possible?

  • Is there a specific reason that you want to avoid a redirect? If you use both domain.com and www.domain.com your search engine ranking can be affected as most search engines will see the two sites as separate; ranking each independently. Jun 24, 2010 at 20:16

What web server software are you using? IIS?

Have two A records, "www.yoursite.com" and "yoursite.com" point to same IP, and set the bindings on the site in your server to take in both request.

    +1 In Apache, you'll want to edit the ServerAlias to have www.example.com and example.com; is IIS under the Advanced settings for the website, you'll see the host headers; add both www. and . there. As for DNS, I generally set www. as a CNAME to the A record example.com for sheer laziness if I have to change it.

Is there any reason why you can't just redirect DNS? That is, set up two address records that point at the server and the client will get the same site.
