Looks like you guys all answered all your own questions while I was vacationing in the great state of Maine. Nice work.

Hopefully this didn’t knock you all to far off the geek-scale.

Ah yes, another spider instruction, I see the point.

I don’t care for the www prefix. it seems a bit archaic, these days it seems most useful for your site address on a business cards, sans http // www mysite.net better cues the reader than mysite.net.

I will stick with the prefixless mysite.com form even though, as I understand cookies for the domain will also apply to any subdomains.

The other common duplicate url is for the home page where a index.php or index.htm file is used. (ie home page found on both domain.com and domain.com/index.htm)

I’ve been in there getting that done… thanks. All my domains were forwarding to the other host, now they are forwarding to dougfrancis.com on the godaddy nameserver.

One cool thing with Jack’s series here is that it goes to show that it all starts with the basics.

You will want to redirect dougfrancishomes.com as well using a 301. There are several links pointing to that domain that are being wasted becuase of the 302.

Bob – thanks for the heads up since it made me think about my GoDaddy account (where I host my site).

I have had dougfrancis.com since 1999 but when I started the current site it was under another domain name hosted elsewhere which was a super slow host.

We switched everything to GoDaddy in May or June for speed and simplicity but I had redirected the domains back to the old site/host. Ooops, I had forgotten to tell GoDaddy that dougfrancis.com is hosted (now) with them. When I checked this morning the GD Nameservers still thought it was hosted with another provider. So I selected “hosting account” at GD.

I really appreciate your suggestions… and will keep you posted.

Hey, I thought “geekiness” is cool?
