A website contains 10 pages. How do we specify that all pages which get indexed use the prefix http://www.example.com/examplepages.html instead of http://example.com/examplepages.html. Which tools, attributes and specifications can be used to achieve this? 1. Read up on <link rel="canonical" href=http://www.v7n.com/forums/seo-forum/"http://example.com/page.html"/>
2. Google webmaster tools enables you to do this for Google. Go to their forum and search.
I'd be interested to learn any more ideas for this from anyone, had a website with the same problem! E.g. does anyone bother setting up redirects if the problem is really bad? as justinknightley told you can use Google webmaster tools for that. But setting the preferred www or non www domain from Google webmasters tools will solve the problem in Google only.
If you want to set the same for all search engines you can set a 301 redirection to redirect all www and non www access to your site to only www or non www.
You can do this through .htaccess or if you don't know coding then there is simple redirection setup in Cpanel you can try it. http://www.webconfs.com/how-to-redirect-a-webpage.php
