I have been considering a redirect (either 301 or 302 - not sure which is best for my situation) because all the pages in my site are being indexed with www.sitename and sitename.com, causing duplicate pages and forcing supplementals, as well as booting off one url version as the other duplicate is indexed.

What I want to know, is for most of us in google, if we type www.sitename in google page rank check we may get a rank 3, then by typing sitename.com, it is often a different rank. Is there a way to fix this by using redirects on all index pages, pointing it to the correct version of the url you want? (ex. www or http Just so search engines will stop indexing both the www and http: versions of the pages hurting my page rank (duplicate issue) Or if there is another way for me to prevent google from indexing both (other engines tend to not index both to the degree google does) I would love to hear about it. Anybody else experience this problem too?

Hope someone can help me out with this... thank you.
