Hi Ssssrpm, This is happened most of the times specially in the office which have about 15 computers & all are running on the same ip address. I advice you to use hide my ip software & then work. Most of the times when the google search is used then this happened  according to google ters & conditions.

Google analyzes that the most of the searches are came from the same ip address because you are using about the 15 computers with same ip address. that 's why due to security issue the google for captcha.

Regardless of how you choose the website name i.e www or non www , we don't worry about the people,they will always find a way to visit both the www & non www versions of your site. It is impossible to handle both the cases. Inspite of this people will always find a way to visit both the www and the non-www versions of your site. It is imperative that you handle both cases.

Hi CommercePundit, A sitemap is a a navigational tool that lists the web pages of a website, which is used by search engines and visitors to help look for pages within the website. Sitemaps are typically organized in a hierarchical style and provide indexing information for search engine bots.

Hi Gonzalo, I had just analyze your website both www & non www. I had come up with following perspectives that are shown below:

URL: http://www.pacomarca.com/

PR: 4

Alexa Rank:18752550

Backlinks: 32

&

URL: http://pacomarca.com/

PR: 4

Alexa Rank:18767880

Backlinks:114

From the above analysis it is clear that the non www has more number of backlinks, so it is better to redirect www to non www.

Redirecting www to non-www

If you want to do the opposite, the code is very similar:

`RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^my-domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://my-domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]`

In this case we are explicitly typing the domain name. I'm sure it's possible to do it in a generic way, but I haven't had the time to work one out and test it. So remember to change 'my-domain' with your domain name!

If you want to know how to redirect the inner page then please check the link:

How do I redirect all visitors to the 'www' version of my Web site (or vice versa)?
