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)

Google index graph duration in Google Webmaster Tools
Hello guys, I wonder, my sites are currently being indexed every 7 days, exactly. At Index Status page in GWT. However, this new site gets updated almost everyday, how can I ask google to index faster and more frequently/almost daily? Is it about SItemap.xml frequency ? I changed it today to Daily. Thanks!

Example of Google Indexing my Feedburner Links
As you can see, there are 2 results for the same page. One is the correct page URL, the other has the Feedburner parameters at the end: http://www.thewebhostinghero.com/articles/improving-user-engagement-with-the-right-blog-commenting-system.html http://www.thewebhostinghero.com/articles/improving-user-engagement-with-the-right-blog-commenting-system.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+thewebhostinghero+(TheWebHostingHero.com) Can this cause duplicate content issues? Can I prevent Google from indexing my Feedburner links? My Feedburner settings are already set to noindex, what else can I do?!? 22cfThX.png

Will Links to one Sub-Domain on a Site hurt a different Sub-Domain on the same site by affecting the Quality of the Root Domain?
Hi, I work for a SaaS company which uses two different subdomains on our site. A public for our main site (which we want to rank in SERPs for), and a secure subdomain, which is the portal for our customers to access our services (which we don't want to rank for) . Recently I realized that by using our product, our customers are creating large amounts of low quality links to our secure subdomain and I'm concerned that this might affect our public subdomain by bringing down the overall Authority of our root domain. Is this a legitimate concern? Has anyone ever worked through a similar situation? any help is appreciated!

Google indexing page with description
Hello, We rank fairly high for a lot of terms but Google is not indexing our descriptions properly. An example is with "arnold schwarzenegger net worth". http://www.google.ca/search?q=arnold+schwarzenegger+net+worth&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a When we add content, we throw up a placeholder page first. The content gets added with no body content and the page only contains the net worth amount of the celebrity. We then go back through and re-add the descriptions and profile bio shortly after. Will that affect how the pages are getting indexed and is there a way we can get Google to go back to the page and try to index the description so it doesn't just appear as a straight link? Thanks, Alex
