How to Get the WWW in the URL in WordPress

Getting the WWW in your WordPress site's URL is simple if you are running a self-hosted blog on a Web server. This feature is not available on WordPress.com accounts, because the hosted WordPress software automatically links the blog to the URL without the WWW prefix. Self-hosted WordPress site owners can complete this task in a four easy steps.

Instructions

      Sign into your self-hosted WordPress account. Type the username and password on the Admin log-in page.

    • 2

      Go to the "Settings" panel on the dashboard's left sidebar. Click the "General" link.

    • 3

      Find the "WordPress address (URL)" field and add "www" to the beginning of the domain name. For example, the full text would read, "http://www.example.com" on the URL line.

    • 4

      Click the "Save Changes" button at the bottom of the page. Your blog or website should populate the address with the "www" prefix.
