Google indexes site without www.

Hi guys,

Was wondering if you guys have the same thing.
My site has been indexed by Google, but the url is http://domainname.com instead of http://www.domainname.com

I have read a few things online and someone suggested to put a 301 redirect of the http://domainname to the http://www.domainname instead
this is done through the following code in .htaccess

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\..* [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301]

Problem is still that this does not seem to work.
Anyone know a better solution for this?

thanks in advance

Take ownership of your site here: http://www.google.com/webmasters/
There’s an option to specify exactly what you want after that...

ah , found it as well..
Google webmaster tools

Thanks!
