Webmasters, The Depricated ‘www’ Subdomain! Here is the .htaccess rewrite
Qubetech.net inserted a small snippet into our .htaccess file making our site class B (no-www approved).
That means that all of the traffic to http://www.qubetech.net is silently redirected to http://qubetech.net. We prefer the no-www classification! It doesn’t inconvenience our users and it confirms the deprecated nature of the www subdomain.
If you, being in the position of webmaster, think this sounds like the right thing to do the Class B conversion is quite simple. All you need to do is to put the following code snippet into your .htaccess file located in the root directory of your site (changing the red text to match your domain).
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
For more information on this subject you should visit http://no-www.org/, where you will get a thorough introduction. On no-www.org you may then add your site to a list of thousands who already changed their domain rewriting rule. (basically a really cool link to your site)
