Those don't match -- do you want the URL to be 'http://www.abc.com'
or do you want to strip the 'www' out?

If you just want the 'http://' added,

  - link_to @user.website, "http://#[email protected]}";

should work.

And just for clarity -- "www.abc.com" is a hostname, not a URL, which
requires a protocol (http, https, ftp, etc.).

You might want to (re)consider which is most appropriate to store for
your app's current and future use.

FWIW,
