Redirect multiple domain names to single canonical domain for your siteRedirect multiple domain names to single canonical domain for your site

This Apache rule describes how to have all selected domains and subdomains for a site come up in the site visitor's browser address bar as your one chosen canonical domain.
Here is an all-in-one-line approach:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.|)(example.com|anotherexample.com|yetanotherexample.ca) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1 [R=301,L]On a Drupal site, your .htaccess will already have an IfModule mod_rewrite.c section, so putting these rules in directly below the existing RewriteEngine On line will work.
Here is also a one-at-a-time method:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
# Redirect all users to access the site at 'www.example.com' (www prefix).
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.anotherexample\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^web\.yetotherexample\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^ftp\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
An implementation that preserves any subdomain while making the domain name consistent:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.(activore\.com|activo\.re|actvr\.co) [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) https://%1.activore.net/$1
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.(activore\.com|activo\.re|actvr\.co) [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) http://%1.activore.net/$1
