I have just notice that when you search for my dominname.co.uk it is no longer appears in the search results but when I search for domainename.com which is forwarded to my .co.uk it appears

how can I get it back as at last count the page has about 1000 backlinks pointing to it and has page rank of about 5

msn and yahoo are still listing it and it place in yahoo results is 5th

what have I done wrong if anything

thanks

Your .com site is being redirected using a 307 (Temporary Redirect) so is responding with a 302 (Found). this causes odd behaviour with the SEs and one hostname will be dropped. in this case the .com has been chosen as the one to show.

Change your redirect to a 301 (Moved Permanently) to fix this problem. This thread outlines what you need to change.

Also, if you're talking about the shopping cart in your profile, you should get rid of the session id.

I have added cname to redirct thanks for that

how did you work out were what type of forward I had

thanks

[chrishirst]

adding a cname won't solve the problem, It's need the type of redirect that needs changing in the .htaccess file.

two things I use for checking HTTP responses, one is my own spider/page scraper with which I can "pretend" to be a search engine spider, and WebBug.

I have removed the cname and added

Redirect 301 / h ttp://www.mydomain.co.uk/ to .htaccess

at take that will do it ok

thanks for your help
