Best way to do what you want is to add another server block: server {
        #implemented by default, change if you need different ip or port
        #listen *:80 | *:8000;
        server_name test.com;
        return 301 $scheme://www.test.com$request_uri;
}   And edit your main server block server_name variable as following: server_name  www.test.com;   Important : New server block is the right way to do this, (https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/depth/ifisevil/) if is evil . You must use locations and servers instead of if if it's possible. Rewrite is sometimes (https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/tutorials/config_pitfalls/#taxing-rewrites) evil too , so replaced it with return .

First make sure you have installed Nginx with the HTTP rewrite module. To install this we need to have pcre-library  (http://www.asep.us/2011/05/30/nginx-instalation-pcre-library-not-found/) How to install pcre library  If the above mentioned are done or if you already have them, then just add the below code in your nginx server block if ($host !~* ^www\.) {
    rewrite ^(.*)$ http://www.$host$1 permanent;
  }   To remove www from every request you can use if ($host = 'www.your_domain.com' ) {
   rewrite  ^/(.*)$  http://your_domain.com/$1  permanent;
  }   so your server block will look like server {
            listen       80;
            server_name  test.com;
            if ($host !~* ^www\.) {
                    rewrite ^(.*)$ http://www.$host$1 permanent;
