Sorry, for some reason the formatting on my comment got removed. Hopefully you can still follow.

Hi All, I have just altered my Google Webmaster tools in the Config (as per Geoff's advice above) and that appears to be fine for now. However, I have also updated my ".htaccess" file dong a 301 redirect, details below: Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine onRewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www. [NC] RewriteRule ^ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301] I also have recently changed my pages from .html to .php do I redirect by using this code as I want all old links to now refer to the .php file: RewriteRule (.*).html$ /$1.php [R=301,L] Lastly, Thomas on the canonical side of things, is it necessary for me to implement this in the Head? How can I see if the work completed is correct or check that it works? Paul.
