I can also view your site without the www prefix. Using the www prefix displays a generic search results page. This generic page could be generated by your Host automatically when they think that you have not created your website yet. Sort of like a temporary placeholder page. * Try adding www to non-www htaccess rewriting code to BPS Custom Code.

You should see a CNAME alias for www. if you do not see that then add it. * Edit: looks like you have an A record so maybe it has something to do with Cloudflare. * ``` [host] => cheaplolteams.com [type] => A [ip] => 50.87.146.167 [class] => IN [ttl] => 300 [host] => www.cheaplolteams.com [type] => A [ip] => 50.87.144.22 [class] => IN [ttl] => 287 ``` * Thread Starter [cheaplt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cheaplt/) * (@cheaplt) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/xml-sitemap-12/#post-4038588) * currently i have my my WWW CNAME set to Pagespeed servers by google. * Plugin Author [AITpro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aitpro/) * (@aitpro) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/xml-sitemap-12/#post-4038589) * huh?

You can setup PSS on top of CloudFlare and receive benefits of both the CDN’s. To setup PSS on top of CloudFlare for ”www.cheaplolteams.com” please follow the below steps : * (1) Log into the CloudFlare DNS Manager and create the ‘cheaplolteams.com’ A record and point it to your Host IP address. Make sure that CloudFlare is disabled for this DNS record. (The record is disabled when the cloud is grey) * (2) CNAME [http://www.cheaplolteams.com](http://www.cheaplolteams.com) to ‘pagespeed. googlehosted.com’. If you would like to receive the benefits of both CloudFlare and PSS, make sure that CloudFlare is enabled for this DNS record. (The record is enabled when the cloud is orange) If you would like to only receive the benefits of PSS, you can disable CloudFlare for this DNS record. * We have also included a link to the PageSpeed Service setup instructions: [https://developers.google.com/speed/docs/pss/setup#cname](https://developers.google.com/speed/docs/pss/setup#cname). Once you are done configuring changes, you can visit [http://www.whatsmydns.net/#CNAME/www.cheaplolteams.com](http://www.whatsmydns.net/#CNAME/www.cheaplolteams.com) to check whether the DNS changes you have made during setup have propagated. * Plugin Author [AITpro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aitpro/) * (@aitpro) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/xml-sitemap-12/#post-4038600) * Yeah I was just checking this and I had never heard of anything like this before. I guess make sure you have done all of the other things that are required. * > Record Type Host Points to > A @ 1.2.3.4 A origin 1.2.3.4 CNAME www pagespeed. > googlehosted.com > If you have an existing DNS A-record for your serving domain, say `www.example. > com`, delete it so that `www.example.com` has only the CNAME-record that you > just added (pointing to pagespeed.googlehosted.com).
