 * The server might respond with a 301 Moved Permanently response to tell the browser to go to “http://www.google.com/” instead of “http://google.com/”. There are interesting reasons why the server insists on the redirect instead of immediately responding with the web page that the user wants to see.
 One reason has to do with search engine rankings. See, if there are two URLs for the same page, say http://www.vasanth.com/ and http://vasanth.com/, search engine may consider them to be two different sites, each with fewer incoming links and thus a lower ranking.
