I want to redirects any page queries for my site which come from roadsout.com to www.roadsout.com.

So if I put this code, here: redirect 301 roadsout.com/ http://www.roadsout.com/ in my .htaacess file will that work?

There is a more simple solution for your issue. Add a subdomain (from your SubDomain Manager menu) www.roadsout.com and point its home directory to the directory of roadsout.com. This will prevent some additional options in the .htaccess file. I hope that my answer is enough satisfying for your question.

A 301 redirect is a permanent redirect which passes between 90-99% of link equity to the redirected page. 301 refers to the HTTP status code for this type of redirect.

Hello,

Another way to redirect from the non-www host name to the www one via .htaccess is by using the following code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
