Last year, I published a how-to on setting up domain mapping with Typepad. Since then, I have noticed that some sites link to emilyrose.org instead of linking to www.emilyrose.org. Because of the way I'd set this up, emilyrose.org still links to my ISP's parking page so Technorati, for example, was showing a picture of the parking page instead of a picture of my home page
So, as I'm using godaddy, I've switched on domain forwarding as well but only to forward emilyrose.org to http://www.emilyrose.org. The CNAME record to then forward www.emilyrose.org on to olddog.typepad.com does the rest of the job.
This may seem a roundabout solution but it does work.
