301 redirects

[melissa1]

At the moment it's possible to access the home page of my website via two different urls, with and without www.  and you've told me that this can  be resolved with Canonicalization and a 301 redirect.  Do I do this with my web hosting package or in my html pages?  If I can't do it with my web host (1&1) then is there an idiot's guide of how to do it yourself?

I've also got both the domain vamospaella.co.uk and vamospaella.com. Is it better to have one of these redirecting to the other for UK traffic (at the moment .co.uk redirects to .com)

Thanks

Hey,

If your target audience / clients are in the UK then it would be better to have .com redirecting to .co.uk

One way of enacting the 301 is to create a .htaccess file and upload it to your website's root directory. This article explains how you can create the file.
