Hmmm.. I think its the IP address of your computer i.e. goto http://whatismyipaddress.com/ and get your IP address and use it below.
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} !^123.45.67.8
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.vietnamvisacorp.com/$1 [R=301,L]I am sorry, not much of an Apache expert.

Thanks for you help?
Is the IP address you mentioned is my localhost? i.e. My sandbox IP address is 123.45.67.8
The redirect 301 should be:RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^123.45.67.8
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
RewriteRule /* http://www.vietnamvisacorp.com/ [R,L]or
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} !^123.45.67.8
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.vietnamvisacorp.com/$1 [R=301,L]Am I right?
Thanks,

Please see https://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=47334
You can demote up to 100 URLs, and demotions are effective for 90 days from your most recent visit to the Sitelinks page in Webmaster Tools.
If I were you, then on http://sandbox.vietnamvisacorp.com/ I would put a 301 redirect based on ip address on all pages.
This will redirect all users to http://www.vietnamvisacorp.com/ based on ip address, i.e. if IP address = your ip then don't redirect otherwise redirect.

If you are webmaster, you can demote the unwanted content using google web master tools.
Configuration -> Sitelinks-> Demote this sitelink URL:
And obviously, keep updating robots.txt moving forward.

"p/s: I have just add robots.txt to sandbox and disallow all pages."
That will do it, just have to wait till google picks up on those instructions (might take a while)

On our site by mistake some wrong links were entered and google crawled them. We have fixed those links. But they still show up in Not Found Errors. Should we just mark them as fixed? Or what is the best way to deal with them?
Some parameter was not sent. So the link was read as : null/city, null/country instead cityname/city

Linking Root Domains after Site-Wide Redirect
(Edited for simplicity) Page #1 on site A has links from 5 different root domains. If I 301 that page to a page on site B that has zero links, will site B gain 5 linking root domains, per the Moz tool? Thanks.

Pages Linking to Sites that Return 404 Error
We have just a few 404 errors on our site. Is there any way to figure out which pages are linking to the pages that create 404 errors? I would rather fix the links than create new 301 redirects. Thanks!

Does this count as a link exchange in eyes of google?
If I see a site is linking to my site in an article I will often find a way to include them in one of my updates (if the site is of good quality). Does this count as a link exchange since they are linking to me and I am also linking to them? Or is that only if it is a sidebar kind of link?

Mini site links?
Can anyone point me to information about the "mini" site links on the Google search results or tell me how to get them set up? These aren't the full site links that show 3 by 3 under the first listing but small text links that appear for certain results. (See attached image for reference.) Are these something that can controlled/requested? NAj6E.png

How to remove crawl errors in google webmaster tools

Adding no follow links on my site
I am getting a warning about having too many links on my page www.accessoriesonline.co.uk (152) but I don't want to remove any links from the site. Its an ecommerce site with categories across the top, featured products and then a further category navigation in the footer. Would it be beneficial if I added a rel="nofollow" to the links in the footer as these are duplicates of the one's in the header or would this harm the links in the header and the destination URL's which I definitely want to be crawled? Also, does anyone know if SEOMOZ considers links with a rel=nofollow as an actually link when they calculate their overview? Thanks in advance

Google refuses to index our domain. Any suggestions?
A very similar question was asked previously. (http://www.seomoz.org/q/why-google-did-not-index-our-domain) We've done everything in that post (and comments) and then some. The domain is http://www.miwaterstewardship.org/ and, so far, we have: put "User-agent: * Allow: /" in the robots.txt (We recently removed the "allow" line and included a Sitemap: directive instead.) built a few hundred links from various pages including multiple links from .gov domains properly set up everything in Webmaster Tools submitted site maps (multiple times) checked the "fetch as googlebot" display in Webmaster Tools (everything looks fine) submitted a "request re-consideration" note to Google asking why we're not being indexed Webmaster Tools tells us that it's crawling the site normally and is indexing everything correctly. Yahoo! and Bing have both indexed the site with no problems and are returning results. Additionally, many of the pages on the site have PR0 which is unusual for a non-indexed site. Typically we've seen those sites have no PR at all. If anyone has any ideas about what we could do I'm all ears. We've been working on this for about a month and cannot figure this thing out. Thanks in advance for your advice.
