Canonicalization
www and non-www resolution.
Guidance
All government websites must have www
and non-www
resolution.
About
Domain canonicalization allows access to the intended website address, whether users type www
(www.example.gov
) or not (example.gov
). Improper canonicalization will fail to direct example.gov
to the intended address, and users will receive an error.
Examples

and non-www
