Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks for your input Hutch. Both incidents you described have occured already. I'm on top of it but my developer seems lost.

Thank you Don, looks promising. I'll dive right into it.

Hi Mozzers,

I'd like your feedback on the following:

the test/development domain where our sitebuilder works on got indexed, despite all warnings and advice.

The content on these pages is in active use by our new site. Thus to prevent duplicate content penalties we have put a noindex in our robots.txt. However off course the pages are currently visible in the SERP's.

What's the best way of dealing with this? I did not find related questions although I think this is a mistake that is often made. Perhaps the answer will also be relevant for others beside me.

Thank you in advance, greetings, Folko
