Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks for the input, but my system isn't actually products.  I just used that as an example.

Do you think there are any seo benefits of having static links to related products as opposed to random ones (different links every time google crawls)

Hello,

I was curious about where to get related products from.  Currently I just grab some random products from the same category.

Would there be any benefit to always linking to the same related products on a product page?

Thanks

Here's how I do it in .htaccess in Linux:

RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC] RewriteRule .* http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

If you already have a RewriteEngine in your .htaccess, you can skip that part.

What this does is check if the host contains www.  If it doesn't it redirects to www. version.  You can find more info here: http://www.stevefortuna.com/redirect-to-www/
