    My website furniturelenny.com shows wwww. instead of www. in the front of it. How did the extra ‘w’ get in there and how can I remove it?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi Lenny – you’ve mapped wwww.furniturelenny.com as a subdomain. It’s not possible to map www as a subdomain, because on WordPress.com, the www version of your domain (www.furniturelenny.com) will always redirect to the domain itself (furniturelenny.com).

    Redirecting the first version of your URL to the second version helps to ensure that search engines index your site properly.

    To fix this, I removed the incorrect subdomain mapping and replaced it with furniturelenny.com. Let me know if you have further questions about this!
