Should I unify my links?
-
Checking at opensiteexplorer.org I can see that:
mydomain.com has has DA 26, linking root domains 1, total links 22
www.mydomain.com has DA 26, linking root domains 31, total links 89
The 22 links to the non-www domain come from the same site, which I would be able to convince to change to the www domain.
Is it worth doing it? Will it add up to better DA?
Thanks

PS: with only 32 root domains I think I have to do some serious link building...

I would contact the site with the 22 links and ask them to add the www if you think that they will be friendly about the request.
I would also modify my htaccess file to 301 redirect all non-www URLs to the www version - that will set you up to avoid most future problems.
Finally, be sure that all of your on-site links are coded for the www, check your site map, and set to the www version in Google Webmaster Tools.

ok, thanks Egol. I shall indeed do so.
