give me one example

I have the exact opposite problem.
>use no-ip dynamic DNS
>set up hostname
>works fine
>try www.hostname
>does not exist
>try to set up CNAME that lets me add the www. part to hostname
>no-ip won't let me

>>57191312
Don't you have to pay for some sort of subscription to no-ip to be able to change CNAME records?

My local library's website used to be like that. I visited just infrequently enough to forget why I couldn't connect every time I tried.

server 
{
    server_name website.cum;
    return 301 http://www.website.cum$request_uri;
}

It's literally this fucking easy. I don't know why this is even an issue for some sites.

I don't know anything about web but that sounds like something that shouldn't work

How is "www" part of your hostname? Why should it be?

Seems like a subdomain for a domain which you should own yourself. Not some free (presumably, since you appear to be running a server and don't have a domain) no-ip DNS service
