  • Jim Munro: Hi +arathymol t p ;. "redundant" hostnames is a term used by Google usually when both the www and non-www versions of your site are being returned in Google search. It is in your interests to select either a www or a non-www version of your site and set your preferred version in GWMT at the same time as 301 redirecting the other version to your preferred version.
