Guest Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 I have a site that has been up and running now for a few months and everything seems to be working correct. I moved my /catalog directory down to root and have not expericened any problems. But today I did a site://mydomain.com and I got 1000's of pages from google linking to my site but with this, http://www.mydomain.com/catalog/productinfo.php?... Why is it picking up the catalog directory? How do I fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radders Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Put this in your .htaccess file (first changing it of course to your own domain name): Redirect permanent /catalog/ http://www.mydomain.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Put this in your .htaccess file (first changing it of course to your own domain name): Redirect permanent /catalog/ http://www.mydomain.com/ <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thanks, I did a 301, is that okay? Do you know why the /catalog is listed. I launched the site months ago in the root. The site was never live with /catalog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radders Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 I thought redirect permanent was a 301 :-) As to why the catalog is listed, all i ca suggest is: Check google's cache to find out when these pages were crawled. Check your logs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Well, the reason for posting this is becauce there is something strange with Google picking up my site in the catalog area. I never launched the site with a catalog directory. The site was moved to root before going live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
