Hi everyone,
I have recently created a website. It now appears on the second page of google when you type in 'sussex website design'. However it appears as:

sussexwebsitedesign.com/index.html

does anyone know why it does not appear as www.sussexwebsitedesign.com, with the www. and without the /index.html, like the other site under that search?

With most domain names the www. seems to be optional, so perhaps Google just happens to have found the page without the www. first. I don't think it's important.

When you use the directory name like www.sussexwebdesign.com without index.html the host server sends you to an index file with any extension like .htm .html .php .css usually in that order if you have more than one.
