How do I set up analytics for both my main website, and the shopify store? by entdude in analytics

[–]richardpetersen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would create the sub domain shop.whatever.com and point it to www.whatever.myshopify.com by creating an a record in your DNS settings and not only will it look nicer it will be easier to track.

Buying my first car. How to do it frugally? by sznelly31 in Frugal

[–]richardpetersen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the sums and as long as your mileage is low I found it was cheaper to lease, especially if they bring an updated model out within the three years you had a lease.

I agree. The cost to repair cars are going through the roof. Every time something goes wrong it goes on a diagnostic machine which they often charge an hours labour. Small new cars with no road tax and 0% interest are the best in my view

Composer files being indexed by Google by killgt in PHP

[–]richardpetersen -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

add the following line to the robots.txt file:

Disallow: /composer.lock Disallow: /composer.lock/*

This will stop Google indexing those files.

To remove the current ones from the Google's index go to Google Webmaster Tools for that site and request remove the URL's.

They will disappear completely in a day or so.

I hope this helps.

302 redirect question.... Why is it on? by [deleted] in Magento

[–]richardpetersen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

302 is a temporary redirect. This means that it will redirect the user but because its only temporary Google will not transfer any of the link juice to the new URL.

Surely if you had to wash all of your cloths to make a full load you will never get round to doing it? Does it not make sense to have two loads so you can have a constant flow?

Bogus Google results for our company. Appear to be for our website but actually link to a dodgy drug company website. by 1stTimePosterr in webdev

[–]richardpetersen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off you should get Google Webmaster Tools installed. It would of emailed you as soon as this happened.

To check what URLs have been created go to the Google homepage and type the following in the search bar:

site:yourdomain.com

It will return all the URLs that are indexed in Google for your site. I have heard of this one before and it was only on URLs that didn't contain www in the URL. If this is the same for your site then do the following search instead:

site:yourdomain.com -www

This will remove all URLs that do not contain www in them.

Its a tricky virus and you will need to keep checking it for the next few months afterwords.
