hey guys
when i search for my site on google www.???.com
the search results show ?????.com how can i get it to
show the www

the reason i need this is when some goes to my site http://???.com
from a google search and someone goes to buy my product i have to
designate a url and since http://???.com is the url that customers will be on if they google search it will not let them buy because i designated http://www.???.com

i hope some one understands my question

thanx
 
Sign up for Google Webmaster Tools if you haven't done already - there's a checkbox in there that tells Google to index with the www included.

Alternatively, if you know .htaccess files AND know your way around, them modify your .htaccess file to force a www in front of your ???.com

Google .htaccess file for more info on this or:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.your_domain.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.your_domain.com/$1 [R=301]

in htaccess in root folder.

Best way is probably WebMaster tools.
 
Webmaster tools is the best way to do it.

If your site is a wordpress site you can change it to www.___.com by going to the settings and editing it there.
 
I think you can also use the "301 permanent re-direct" function so that visitors always get re-directed to your "www...." page, no matter what they type in the address bar or what Google shows.
 
Do it in webmaster tools like everybody said and also do a 301 redirect in htaccess: "Redirect 301 /index.php http://www.domain.com" without the quotes. Also, when you link to your site and do backlinks always add the www.
