Does anyone know how or why or how to stop google from indexing products from my other sites. I have 2 sites one selling shoes and one selling electronics. Huge difference. Google is finding electronics on my shoe site even though there are no links. WHY?!?!?

Please Help. Open to any input whatsoever.

Also could use help on that search problem than many others are having. I can't have a search for "black" on the shoe site bring up black electronics.

Thanks

Hi everyone,

First of all, I would like to thank Gerome to come up this wonderful ideal which solved one of my major problem. I took his ideal and modified it to meet my own need. I have a primary site which can list all products. I also have bunch of sub sites (sub-domains). Here is a list of what my site can do:

1. one db shared by all sites
2. one copy of zen cart code
3. each site can define not only its own payment modules but also shipping modules - this is one thing I am really happy about and hoping this ideal can be used in the future release of zen cart (if they want to support multi-sites)
4. each site only display and sell its own products; the primary site only display all products and does not sell them - this is due to my site's business logic and can be changed.
5. each site has its own template
6. only one copy of image per product need to be stored

Thing I would like to have is to allow sub-site owners to access the admin for adding and modifying their own products, payment methods, and shipping methods.

The primary site is http://YOUDOMAINNAME.com which is redirected to http://YOUDOMAINNAME.com/primarystorename
The sub-site can be http://subsitename.YOUDOMAINNAME.com, http://www.subsitename.YOUDOMAINNAME.com, http://YOUDOMAINNAME.com/substename, or http://www.YOUDOMAINNAME.com/subsitename

If any one would like to know how I did this, I be glad to share my experience. I made the changes about three months ago and moved on my other tasks. I have just put my site on air today for alpha test. After taking so many from others, I feel I should put my two dimes on the table.

I am not including any codes here yet only because I don't know to post them. :O Should I just cut and paste them in this post. It looks messy.

PS. I am re-testing my payment and shipping flow now (I did it 3 months ago) and working on my wordings. Please let me know if you find anything wrong.

Apparently I posted my question where I wasn't supposed. I'm not trying to break the rules of double posting, just post where my questions will be attended. Here is my other post: Subdomain Redirection

[loop4ever]

This is what I did:

Add a line in public_html/.htaccess

RedirectMatch temp ^/$ http://www.yourdomain.com/yoursubdomain/

There are other ways to redirect. This works for me.

Hi,
If you do a product search on one site, do products from the other sites show up in the search?

If not, can you advise what we need to change/where we need to apply the filter so that the search only returns the 'current' sites products.
Thanks
