What is naked domain redirect?
wwwizer.com provides free service – naked domain redirect. That helps with "naked domain problem".What is a "naked domain" problem? Do I have it?
Naked domain problem means that your website doesn't work without www in front. So if you have www.example.com website it can be opened only by entering full name. When someone enters only example.com (notice no www in front) the error is shown.Yes, I can see error on my website. Why is that?
In short: it happens because of the way DNS works and because your hosting provider or publishing platform does not support www-less websites.Long explanation: your hosting provider has a lot of servers and all of them can show your website. But there is no way to know which particular server will process requests to your website. So your provider providing you with a CNAME record for your website. And you (or provider on your behalf) put that record into www.example.com name. But there is a catch: it is not possible to put CNAME-record into www-less or "naked" name. Only particular server's IP-address must go there. wwwizer.com gives you that address.
