I'd tell you to star the item to add this to AppsForDomains, but that
doesn't seem to do any good.

Naked Domains used to work, then they broke it. They clear the stars when
they unbreak it for a few hours, then they break it again.

Also if your naked domain has a different DNS record than your WWW Google
the search engine gives you a pretty stiff penalty.  Awesome don't you
think? Yeah me to.

Generally the easiest option is to redirect the "naked domain" to the www
host. You can use Google Apps to do the redirect, but note that Google Apps
doesn't preserve path information while redirecting. Most registrars provide
the ability to do the redirects for free; which registrar are you using?

 

If you're using GoDaddy, you can go into Launch Domain Manager > Add
Forwarding > select the 301 Permanent redirect option > select Forward Only
(NOT forward with masking). Other registrars have similar settings.
