Site Redirection

In my personal opinion of course, you need to properly redirect the site to a non www or just www for everyone. This way if I visit https://www.cobaltss.net I get https://www.cobaltss.net or vice versa.

You can easily do this through the .htaccess file. It would look a little something like this

PHP Code:


			RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^clanthemes.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.clanthemes.com$1 [R=301,L]
RedirectPermanent http://clanthemes.com http://www.clanthemes.com

Prolly best placed after all the rewrites in the .htaccess.

I also noticed that you have an index.php issue. That should be redirected to the main site. You can visit www.clanthemes.com/index.php to see what I mean. This is best for SEO purposes and bookmarks etc.

The complete code for the .htaccess looks something like this

PHP Code:


			#----Redirect index.php---------------------
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.php\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://www.clanthemes.com/ [R=301,L]
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^clanthemes.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.clanthemes.com$1 [R=301,L]
RedirectPermanent http://clanthemes.com http://www.clanthemes.com

Of course modified if you choose to go non-www.
