How do I add the "www." to a website i've set up to have no www. (example: mydomain.com --> www.mydomain.com)

Any answers would be greatly appreciated!

in google webmaster tools you just verify both the www.yourdomain.com and yourdomain.com you then go to setting and choose which one you want to appear in webmaster tools settings

okay, yes. but change it on my domain. so instead of it being domain.com it literally appears as www.domain.com

you can do that from htaccess, add the following code :

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