Creating Directory Redirect

[larssonk22]

For some reason Google has cached some of my website pages, and has denied me removal :mad:

I have put 301 redirect for pages that no longer exist, however Google has also listed a folder eg. "www.mydomain.com/folder"

How can I redirect out of this non exisitant folder to another page located on my site.

you shoul put an index.html or index.php page in all your folders to avoid listings from users. Then you can put a redirect script in those pages.
To avoid google to crawl content from a directory you can edit the robots.txt file by adding
block mydomain dot com/folder

There lies a problem one folder is

www.mydomain.com/folder

The google sitemaps link brings up a 404 error. However the folder has content

www.mydomain.com/folder/content1.htm

So I don't understand why it has a problem with the folder and not the content within it :confused:
