Recently I found this great product that allows visitors on your website to chat with you live on your site. Does your company have a sales department or a support department, or do you have the need to chat with your visitors live? This product can great assist you or your company in turning visitors to your site into potential paying customers. This product is called Live!Zilla and can be found at www.livezilla.net.

This month I had the pleasure of integrating LiveZilla into our own website, www.gofishclientcatchers.com, and into some of our Gold clients’ websites - www.bestbeach.co.za, www.beachtag.co.za and www.howlo.co.za.

Search engines consider http://www.gofishclientcatchers.com and http://gofishclientcatchers.com two different websites. As a result, if your website has been linked to from other websites using both of the two URLs, you are effectively splitting the potential benefit of valuable link popularity.

The Solution

You can use a 301 redirect on the "non-WWW" version of the URL which is basically a permanent redirect in simple terms. You can pretty much consolidate all your link popularity to a single, straightforward URL. This will help to increase your site's chance of obtaining and maintaining good rankings, especially with major search engines such as Google, Bing and Yahoo.
