Domain settings - switching from www. to not www.

[alexandermen]

Hello Shopify Community,

I have a question regarding domain settings.

Is it possible to switch from www.******.com to *****.com without disrupting our webstore?

 

 

The reason behind this change is that it seems Google is having difficulty finding our shop. It looks like our original domain is *****.com, but our primary Shopify domain is set to www.******.com, which currently redirects users. Google may have a problem with that.

Thank you for your assistance!

Best regards,

Hi @alexandermen 

In that image, you choose set yourstore.com (without www) as the primary domain if it’s not already. And then, Shopify will automatically redirect all www traffic to the non-www version. It won't affect SEO or functionality, and your store will remain accessible from both URLs.

Ah, if you're using third-party hosting, ensure your DNS settings have the correct A record and CNAME pointing to Shopify.
