I can be techie here in my blog sometimes, right? Hehe...
Naked domain, simply put, is the domain without the www at the beginning. So, the example here is yoursite.com. You have to configure your naked domain so that if one enters your naked domain (yoursite.com), it would be redirected to www.yoursite.com. This is important so you will not lose somebody who wants to view your site when he just types yoursite.com at the browser's address bar.
The following is the step-by-step guide to accomplish the goal:
1. Login to your GoDaddy account. Look for the Domains tab, then your Domain Name. Click on your domain.
2. Inside the Domain Details, look for Forwarding option. It is usually located at the bottom of the Domain Information. Click on Manage link.
3. Enter your domain name with www. You can opt to click the Preview to see your page. Click OK to submit.
It usually takes 1 hour to 48 hours to take effect. So, be patient! ;)
Hope this helps! ^_^
