Simple .htaccess Hack for Drupal SEO
On a fresh install of Drupal, you'll encounter issues with how your website's domain can be accessed. Out of the box, you'll be able to access your site both with and without the "www" prefix. This can be a problem for SEO, as the potential exists for search engines to think your website contains duplicate content, even when it doesn't. This isn't a fix that will lead to dramatic improvements, but it's a good SEO best practice for Drupal sites.
Step 1: Find Your .htaccess File
This file will be located in the directory where you installed Drupal.
Step 2: Download to Your Desktop and Edit
Use your favorite HTML editor.
Step 3: Find the Code
Should be around line 80.
Step 4: Edit the Code
Uncomment (delete the # from lines 87 & 88) and adapt (change "example.com" to your domain, be sure to leave any other characters such as the "^" or "\")
Step 5: Upload and Replace
And you're done! No matter how you type in your domain, it should all redirect to the "www" version.

An Abercrombie And Fitch
An Abercrombie And Fitch employee in northern California is alleging she was fired for refusing to remove her hijab, or headscarf marking her Muslim observance. Abercrombie pursuit of a homogeneous army of "perfect" employees appears to have snared it again!
Abercrombie Clothing to the AP, "the Council on Abercrombie UK Relations said Wednesday it filed an Equal Abercrombie London Opportunity Commission complaint on behalf of Hani Khan." Abercrombie Fitch says she was told she would be allowed to wear a Abercrombie Outlet, but a visiting district manager disputed that. She says she was fired when she refused to take it off.
In 2008, an Abercrombie And Fitch accused Abercrombie of refusing to hire her because her head scarf "didn't fit the chain's image." That lawsuit, filed last year, is still in progress.
Abercrombie in the company's serious on-the-ground sensitivity issues: Abercrombie Clothing to let a woman help her autistic sister try on Abercrombie UK, for which they were fined $115,264, and banishing an employee with a prosthetic arm from the store floor. That employee, Riam Dean, was awarded ￡8,000 for unlawful harassment, although the tribunal ruled that she hadn't suffered disability discrimination.
Abercrombie London has a well-documented mission of selling its idea of youthful physical perfection, Abercrombie Fitch the Bruce Weber ad campaigns to the employees that fit its ideal of American beauty. The company conceded that that ideal didn't include black, Abercrombie Outlet, and Asian employees in 2004 when it paid $40 million to employees and job applicants of those demographics to settle a class-action federal discrimination lawsuit. They had been accused of "engaging in recruiting and hiring practices that exclude minorities and adopting a virtually all-white marketing campaign."
