Repeated hostnames

Andrew

Hi!
I have a problem with google analytics:
I Receiving data with repeated hostnames (with www and without www), I want to solve this problem with 301 redirect in .htaccess file like so:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$ [NC] RewriteRule ^ http%{ENV:protossl}://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
because I'm afraid to break something, tell me whether it is right and proper method of this decision at all, it would be interesting to know your opinion on this issue.
Thanks in advance!

Your 301 idea is fine but a bit messy IMO. It may be better to remove the non-www entry from your domain's control panel.

My .htaccess
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Thanks for the advice and example of .htaccess, it's definitely better!
I did not quite understand what did you mean about removing non-www entry from control panel, I got ISPManager on my host and in WWW doamins I got my_site.com witout www entry and alias with www.
