patrmich Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Hi, My online shop is not built under Prestashop Now, I am re-building the shop with Prestashop. The re-buiding page can last several weeks During the construction phase, I would like to avoid any new site indexation (to avoid duplicate content with the active shop). How is it possible to avoid the in-construction shop indexation ? Thank you in advance for any reply. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stephen Bromfield Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Hi patrmich, I would put the site in maintenance mode. You can do this by clicking on: Preferences --> Enable Shop = No --> Save. If you would like to see the shop while in maintenance mode you can add your ip address to the "Maintenance IP addresses" field. Also, you may want to read this page from google. Hope that helps. -Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdr170 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 You can also try adding index.php to robots.txt. this will keep the crawlers from indexing your main page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
