domain name

Using Gmail to manage your hosted domain.

Many of my customers have been extremely happy using gmail as their primary interface when dealing with mail addressed to their hosted domains. Using this technique, emails appear to be received and sent from your domain, but all email management is completed at gmail.

You too, can have this feature for FREE, Google is giving free service for small organisation, check their TOS.

You are required to have a Gmail address to sign up for Gmail for your domain. If you do not have a Gmail account, you can register for one from the link provided below. To learn more about Gmail for your domain, visit:

http://www.google.com/a/

Once you are approved for Gmail for your domain (which can take 7-10 days), you will need to change the MX records on your domain. This is an ‘advanced’ setting at some registars, so they will give you ample warnings that you can mess this up and not receive any e-mails.

Give it about an hour or two, and you are now live with Gmail for your domain.

The biggest thing you need to do to configure your domain to change the Custom MX.

Force your visitors to visit WWW of your website.

Google can sometimes think “www and without www” are 2 duplicate websites and it could harm your seach engine result position (SERP)! It is better to force your visitor (including google bot) to view only 1 version of your website.

You can easily redirect all non-www traffic to www version of your domain, along with links to homepage or sub-folder. e.g. redirect yourdomain.com/aboutus.htm to www.yourdomain.com/aboutus.htm

Append code below to your .htaccess file, replace yourdomain.com with your own domain name.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourdomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Code above works with any Apache webserver with RewriteEngine.

Anyone knows what is the solution for IIS ?
