Why Does My Website Not Working without www?

I searched a little and found that many like me were also looking for this simple problem of blog or website not opening without www prefix.Obviously your website website will not work without www if you have not done a little and simple task which I am going to show.It was really very confusing when I came to know that my website not working without www whether it is bought from godaddy, namecheap, 1and1, eznow, hostgator,register, domain, dreamhost, onlydomains, hostgator or any other local domain seller website. 


How I Came To Know About This Issue:

Some days before when I purchased a domain name for my blog PK Helper, I simply applied the domain name through settings and after a couple of hours my domain name was all set up according to me because when I clicked on view blog, I could easily access my blog at www.pkhelper.com. Everything was looking fine until one of my close friend told me that your blog is not accessible without www. I was shocked that how can this happen because my domain was working with www but it was not working without www and i was not aware of this.This is an essential step to check after applying domain.

Actually this is not an issue with Domain Registrar Website from where you bought your website's domain name. It is your blog or website settings that are responsible for this problem that your site not opening without www.
