PLS HELP!! Switch from naked domain to www

[Domenikogj]

I have a streaming website that recently had a big drop in organic traffic . Google was ranking me in #3 position for a keyword and suddenly in one night it went down to page 6.Same happened to some other keywords.

Anyway im trying to redirect my domain from a naked domain (https://mysite.com) to (https://www.mysite.com). I heard that this method gets rid of Dmca. Then if something happens again, redirect to www1.mysite.com.

Which is the easiest way to do this, because i image its pretty easy to screw this up.
Pls help me on this one or send me a Pm if someone knows how to do this .

Simply use wordpress general setting to change it to www.? or htaccess (Search Google)

If you use wordpress do it via the general settings.

Otherwise you can just change it in the .htaccess file

Edit: always fascinating how people prefer to wait for xyz minutes instead of spending one minute of searching on google.

You can use the following code:

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

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]

Can you do the same if i want to switch from www to www1 in the future?
