USING
"WWW"
“www.member.forwardingweb.com” or
“member.forwardingweb.com”
ForwardingWeb references member URLs as having a “www.” in front of them. This
does not mean they must use it to work. Both forms of the URL - with or without the “www.”
- will function exactly the same.
Then why
use the “www.” you may ask? There are basically three types of people who
will use forwarding services:
- Those that want a domain but either
can’t afford one or aren’t willing to pay for one, therefore they use a
subdomain forwarding service because it looks like a domain. The “www.” just
adds to this illusion.
- Those that have a domain but their host
can’t handle it. They’re then forced to use a forwarding service. Domains
are usually always referenced with a “www.” anyway, so it’s only logical
for ForwardingWeb to carry on the tradition.
- Those that have
sites with long URLs and want a subdomain or domain to forward to them. In this case, the
“www.” adds nothing. However, just because ForwardingWeb uses “www.” on
the members pages doesn’t mean the members have to use it, so even in this
case there is no problem.
In other words, you can use your URLs
with our without the "www." prefix. It is your choice.
