Title: Hide component/virtuemart/ for searchengines
Post by: erwin_m on September 23, 2015, 20:25:24 PM
Hi,

I would like to hide http://myurl.com/component/virtuemart/ in the results on searchengines. At this moment this is one of the top-url's in the results. I don't use this page and it doesn't look okay.

How can I hide this? I don't have installed an seo modules.

In robot.txt is the following code:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /administrator/
Disallow: /cache/
Disallow: /cli/
Disallow: /components/
Disallow: /images/
Disallow: /includes/
Disallow: /installation/
Disallow: /language/
Disallow: /libraries/
Disallow: /logs/
Disallow: /media/
Disallow: /modules/
Disallow: /plugins/
Disallow: /templates/
Disallow: /tmp/

Regards,

Erwin

normally just

Disallow: /component/virtuemart

but it depends what your other shop urls look like

google webmaster tools has a robots text tester

Thank you, I've made the adjustments. Now I have to wait for a little bit.

but as I say -- you can test your robots thru the webmaster tools or there are other online testers
