Ensure a Consistent URL for Better SEO & Link Authority

Many store owners want their OpenCart website to always display either the www or non-www version of their domain. For example, ensuring that visitors always see www.example.com or just example.com in their browser.

Search engines treat www.example.com and example.com as separate websites. If different versions of your URL are linked across the web, your link authority gets divided, impacting your SEO rankings.

Use Cases:

Why is this important?

✅ Prevents duplicate content issues across www and non-www versions
✅ Improves SEO rankings by consolidating link authority
✅ Enhances website consistency across search engines and browsers
✅ Prevents accidental page indexing conflicts

Which is better: www or non-www?

Both are equally good. Google does not prefer one over the other, but it is highly recommended to pick one format and stick to it. Google Search Console allows you to set your preferred domain, but you must also enforce it at the server level for consistency.

How We Help

We will set up a 301 permanent redirect to enforce your preferred URL version. This ensures that all traffic and SEO benefits consolidate into a single URL format.
