Hi Huey
I am agree with Ben's answer 301 redirection is best way to solve this problem. It was happen because your website might be open with or without www. so this code will help you in sticking one domain.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !www.plugnbuy.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.plugnbuy.com/$1 [L,R=301]
Write this code in .htaccess file and upload this file in your FTP Server.
After applying this code you have to set preferred same domain via Configuration setting in Google webmaster tool.

Hi Huey, if you look around for "canonical URLs" you should get a lot of information advising you how to do this.
The easiest way to do this is with a 301 redirect via a .htaccess file. This can sort both the non www. and the /index.php issues.
-
You will also need a redirect for index.php (or index.html or index.aspx) to www.plugnbuy.com.
Your site has not yet launched, so you don't need to panic yet.

1. When you change that setting in GWT, it takes a while to have an effect.
2. You also need to implement a 301 redirect so that plugnbuy.com redirects to www.plugnbuy.com.

No index on subdomains
Hi, We have a subdomain that is appearing in the search results - I want to hide this as it looks really bad. If I were to add the no index tag to the sub domain would URL would this affect the whole domain or just that sub domain? The main domain is vitally important - it is just that sub domain I need to hide. Many thanks

How to know which pages are indexed by Google?
So apparently we have some sites that are just duplicates of our original main site but aiming at different markets/cities. They have completely different urls but are the same content as our main site with different market/city changed. How do I know for sure which ones are indexed. I enter the url into Google and its not there. Even if I put in " around " it. Is there another way to query google for my site? Is there a website that will tell you which ones are indexed? This is probably a dumb question.

Google News not indexing .index.html pages
Hi all, we've been asked by a blog to help them better indexing and ranking on Google News (with the site being already included in Google News with poor results) The blog had a chronicle URL duplication problem with each post existing with 3 different URLs: #1) www.domain.com/post.html (currently in noindex for editorial choices as showing all the comments) #2) www.domain.com/post/index.html (currently indexed showing only top comments) #3) www.domain.com/post/ (very same as #2) We've chosen URL #2 (/index.html) as canonical URL, and included a rel=canonical tag on URL #3 (/) linking to URL #2.
Technical SEO | | H-FARM
Also we've submitted yesterday a Google News sitemap including consistently the list of URLs #2 from the last 48h . The sitemap has been properly "digested" by Google and shows that all URLs have been sent and indexed. However if we use the site:domain.com command on Google News we see something completely different: Google News has indexed actually only some news and more specifically only the URLs #3 type (ending with the trailing slash instead of /index.html). Why ? What's wrong ? a) Does Google News bot have problems indexing URLs ending with .index.html ? While figuring out what's wrong we've found out that http://news.google.it/news/search?aq=f&pz=1&cf=all&ned=us&hl=en&q=inurl%3Aindex.html gives no results...it seems that Google News index overall does not include any URLs ending with /index.html b) Does Google News bot recognise rel=canonical tag ? c) Is it just a matter of time and then Google News will pick up the right URLs (/index.html) and/or shall we communicate Google News team any changes ? d) Any suggestions ? OR Shall we do the other way around. meaning make URL #3 the canonical one ? While Google News is showing these problems, Google Web search has actually well received the changes, so we don't know what to do. Thanks for your help, Matteo0
