Internet Marketing Strategy

Anthony Ongaro over at 125 Design hooked up TYPELiFE with a new fancy-schmancy Entrecard design, for FREE! If you’re interested in getting your Entrecard designed, I really would recommend his services … after requesting a free Entrecard design as per his recent promotion, he gave me two designs to pick from. I’m going to use the design I didn’t employ on Entrecard as an avatar on various webmaster forums. Check out my loot and hurry up and head over to 125 Design to request a quote on your Entrecard design now!

This neat little trick will force all browsers that are trying to access your website from domain.com into a standardized gateway of www.domain.com for increased search engine consistency, as well as a consistent aesthetic appearance to regular users.

Add the following snippet of code to the .htaccess of your public html directory where you would like to use this.

RewriteEngine OnRewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]

Voila, 301 forwarded to the same homepage every time!

(BTW, this also prevents having such a varying pagerank between domain.com and www.domain.com some of the time.)
