www. version of website does not work

TomASB — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 14:37:27 GMT

Hi, I've been trying to set up my first website today so I am new to web hosting. I've encountered a problem where the version of my website not prefaced with www. will work but it won't with the www. Any advice?

when you type in your domain name without the precuro www. what do you see in the url address bar when it has loaded?

Sound like the @ none DNS record is configured but not the www record.

Go to dnsforms.co.uk, submit a general enquiry providing the information in this thread and the appropriate security info and someone on the DNS team will look into this for you. It should only be a matter of changing the records and should complete within 24 hours of being actioned.

Thanks for the replies. the URL gets redirected to

This is because I created the site in iWeb and there seems no possible way to not have the site redirect. This could very well be the cause of the problem.
