  Hello,

  Why the adress of my website does not appear as it should.

  The adress is http://www.thesanitysnack.com but when loaded it changes to https://thesanitysnack.com/. Why ?

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

  Hi there,

  All WordPress.com sites are loaded over https for security reasons:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

  It’s also a minor ranking factor in Google.

  Hi there,

  If you’re referring to the “www”, that prefix is automatically removed from all URLs for sites on WordPress.com. The URL will still work with the www, but it won’t be visible in the browser once the site loads.
