I know this question has been asked several times but I cannot find a satisfactory answer. Here Redirecting WIX URL to another URL and here Redirect a wix website to a new external website
We just purchased a store and are trying to migrate the website to a new website so it is easier for us to take online payments and have it synced with our inventory and everything on square. However, I cannot figure out how to do a 301 redirect from the home page to the new website.

My website is showing as "deceptive site ahead" in the browsers.
My website is on shopify. I'm not sure how to backup, scan or download my website files and remove whatever is causing the problem.
I want to link my mobile variant website version to the desktop version i.e "view website in desktop". You click this button and it will take you to the desktop version only. Program I use is Xara Web Designer. CPanel is where the files are hosted.
They have advised I need to create two copies of my website to do this.
I can duplicate my website but how would I go about uploading the two copies to CPanel? Also I would need to remove the robots.txt file from one of them because I do not want google crawling the duplicate site (SEO Issues).
Would I need two domains? I want to keep just one.
Thanks in advance please let me know if you need clarification on anything.
There are better solutions with regards to SEO such as making your website 'mobile responsive'. But to answer your specific question, you are probably best to create a mobile website and set it up on a 'm.' subdomain (so you only need your 1 domain name). You can do this from cPanel under 'Subdomains'.
As for no-indexing the mobile website with robots.txt, the correct method is to use the 'canonical' tag. This is a good guide from Google on the subject: https://developers.google.com/webmasters/mobile-sites/mobile-seo/overview/select-config?hl=en
My cousin has given me her old website to "redo" which is on a Google Sites template. I have separately created a static website with Ruby on Rails setup and Bootstrap but am now scratching my head on how to transition her old Google Site to this new layout (I want to keep the original domain name).
Also, the good thing about Google Sites is that when I search for her business, it pops up on the right side of the page and sometimes pops up at the top for google local search, which is obviously great for marketing/SEO.
I did read something that Google doesn't support other platforms (I think) which is why I'm wondering if I can redirect and still retain the SEO benefits. Any resources or suggestions would be great, thanks!
Setup your new site with new ROR template.
Register and verify your new domain and old one on Google Webmaster
Create a custom 404 page for old domain which suggests visiting new domain.
Redirect your old urls to new one by a 1:1 redirection with 301, "Moved Permanently", like www.oldone.com/games to www.newone.com/games
Submit your sitemap of old one to Google and BIng, they will see 301 and rewrite their crawl cache.
Fill out change of address in Google webmaster and add new site's sitemap.
Above method is the best SEO friendly site moving method.
ps: Not exactly ROR question .
Edit: I don't really know about google pages but one of doing this would be, deploy ROR site somewhere and use iframe in google page to project it to google page.
In your google page,
.
use options like height="100%" to cover the entire page.
My question is "How to integrate apache and google site via proxy"?
I found this tutorial but it didn't work as I expected. It redirect to google site instead of keep my domain in address bar and change content only.
In my case, I want whenever people access to http://mydomain.com, they will see the content from https://sites.google.com/site/mydomain/
Thanks!
I think it's not possible because you can't acces on the dataBase on your Google Sites. The url of your Google can't change.
we have a Orchard site with a custom Module which has its separate _Layout/views (not rendering through Orchard's layout/theme).
we have two home pages: #1. www.xyz.com and #2. www.xyz.com/m. Where First one is the main site and the second one is the mobile site.
We want to redirect any traffic browsing the the main site (#1 url) to the mobile site (#2 url) if browsing from a mobile device or a tablet.
Where exactly in Orchard we have to make the changes to get the desired result?
