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)

Should I worry that thousands of spam sites are linking to me?
I was browsing Google Webmaster Tools and discovered there are 117,301 links to my site— mostly from very low-quality, spammy websites. I definitely did not solicit these links. I'm worried they are from a competitor trying to get me penalized by Google. Should I be worried about this? spam-websites.png?1505218483

Off-site company blog linking to company site or blog incorporated into the company site?
Kind of a SEO newbie, so be gentle. I'm a beginner content strategist at a small design firm. Currently, I'm working with a client on a website redesign. Their current website is a single page dud with a page authority of 5. The client has a word press blog with a solid URL name, a domain authority of 100 and page authority of 30. My question is this: would it be better for my client from an SEO perspective to: Re-skin their existing blog and link to the new company website with it, hopefully passing on some of its "Google Juice,"or... Create a new blog on their new website (and maybe do a 301 redirect from the old blog)? Or are there better options that I'm not thinking of? Thanks for whatever help you can give a newbie. I just want to take good care of my client.

Will Google Recrawl an Indexed URL Which is No Longer Internally Linked?
We accidentally introduced Google to our incomplete site. The end result: thousands of pages indexed which return nothing but a "Sorry, no results" page. I know there are many ways to go about this, but the sheer number of pages makes it frustrating. Ideally, in the interim, I'd love to 404 the offending pages and allow Google to recrawl them, realize they're dead, and begin removing them from the index. Unfortunately, we've removed the initial internal links that lead to this premature indexation from our site. So my question is, will Google revisit these pages based on their own records (as in, this page is indexed, let's go check it out again!), or will they only revisit them by following along a current site structure? We are signed up with WMT if that helps.

Unnatural links from your site
Hi, 24 February got this penalty message in Google webmaster tool. Google detected a pattern of unnatural, artificial, deceptive, or manipulative outbound links on pages on this site. This may be the result of selling links that pass PageRank or participating in link schemes. Already removed all the link on the blog and sent reconsideration request to Google spam team. But request is rejected. Please help me on this or share link with me on same case. Thanks,

Having www. and non www. links indexed
Hey guys, As the title states, the two versions of the website are indexed in Google. How should I proceed? Please also note that the links on the website are without the www. How should I proceed knowing that the client prefers to have the www. version indexed. Here are the steps that I have in mind right now: I set the preferred domain on GWMT as the one with www. I 301 redirect any non www. URL to the www. version. What are your thoughts? Should I 301 redirect the URL's? or is setting the preference on GWMT enough? Thanks.

Google Shows 24K Links b/w 2 sites that are not linked
Good Morning, Does anyone have any idea why Google WMT shows me that i have 24,101 backlinks from one of my sites ( http://goo.gl/Jb4ng ) pointing to my other site ( http://goo.gl/JgK1e ) ... These sites have zero links between them, as far as I can see/tell. Can someone please help me figure out why Google is showing 24k backlinks? Thanks

Is there a penalty for linking to sites that are all hosted on the same IP address?
Hi... We're doing some reciprocal link building and a gentleman has been kind enough to offer me sever additional links for the exchange. All of them (5) are on the same IP address as one of his links to which we have already linked. They are in a related field of endeavor, legal websites. If I make the swap with him, is Google going to disregard, penalize or otherwise marginalize my efforts? Thanks!
