we have natural links to our site that use the www. access, whereas google is indexing the http://company link.

gonna setup so that in the end everything gets to the same place. gonna use the 301 redirect (homepage moved permanently)

i've setup the 301, so we'll see what happens ....

No, he's going to set it up so that foo.com redirects to www.foo.com automatically.

See what happens to the www. here: http://www.robm.me.uk/

yes, you used the one withot www. i don't think it matters which one you choose but having two default pages is bad in my view.

pcpro.co.uk gets you nowhere.

Annoying once you get into the habit of dropping the www.

If you use Firefox, setup a bookmark for www.pcpro.co.uk then edit it and add 'pcpro'[.co.uk] as its keyword.

Alternatively if you have your browser setup to search for domains and go to the first result, typing pcpro and hitting enter will take you to the site :cool:
