      I have been having a tough time getting my customer backlinks developed. However; I noticed when I run a backlink report for http://www.mycustomer.com, www.mycustomer.com and customer.com that I get three different backlink totals. Is there any way to forward to of the above URL's to one or am I doing something wrong when I am developing the backlinks?

        It just sounds like it's however the links are being formed. As long as the site is setup correctly and redirecting one to another, then there will be no problem.

            Just go to http//site.com - does it forward to www.site.com? If it does, redirects are working. If not, then you will want to read up on .htaccess redirection as this is what will control how the site acts depending on how the URL is entered.

              Yes, that does work. Is there no way to make http://site.com, www.site.com and site.com seen as the same for the purposese of backlinks?

                If that redirect works (check not only the frontpage, but also internal pages), and you still see the three kind of results, you should implement the canonical tag on your site to make sure it is detected as the same page not depending on call URLs.
