    Necessity of robots.txt

    Thanks chrishirst. I'm now doubtful about other information this "knowledgeable" person is giving me.

    Necessity of robots.txt

    In recent times website traffic to my business site has decreased. I'm told by someone "knowledgeable" that my robots.txt file is turned off and that I need to turn it on immediately. A search of my website indicates I don't have a robots.txt file there at all. I think when I built the site...

    The problem has been solved. I had two commas to remove and bingo! Thank you.

    meta charset

    Sorry but I don't understand the terminology of "the way the document is to be used". Can you explain it for me please? This is the website: http://www.cheap-and-easy-recipes.com/index.php

    Structured data

    Thank you chrishirst. I'll go looking back further. My Dreamweaver crashed for no apparent reason yesterday so I now have to sort that out before I can progress much further with the website re-vamp.

    Structured data

    I'm trying to update my very old and neglected recipes website. I've just started using the structured data testing tool but I have a problem with this part of the code: "recipeIngredient". There is apparently an error on the very bottom line of the code but I can't see what I've done wrong...

    meta charset

    Thanks chrishirst. This is what I have at the top of each page: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> So, if I use <meta charset="UTF-8" /> would that...

    meta charset

    In order to define charset for DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional which notation should I use please: <meta charset="UTF-8" /> or <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> Thanks in advance, Jean

    1 host, multiple domains and my 404 problem

    I’ve gone to Local Disc (C:) Selected: Users Found: Public (not public_html) I selected: Public Documents but that is empty. If I go this route: Local Disc (C:) Selected: Users Found: Public (again not public_html) Then select: Morrison4 I’ve then found My Documents which includes...

    1 host, multiple domains and my 404 problem

    Thanks for your reply Chris. Are the domain document root folders something I have access to or is this something the provider has to do please? I just made up a .htaccess page and put it in with all the other pages on the site so I should delete that then?

    1 host, multiple domains and my 404 problem

    I have three websites all hosted together. The business website has a 404 page which works well: http://www.heritageceilings.com.au/404.php. I have realized this same page also shows up when a web page is mis-typed for my other two sites. I've spoken to the domains team at the place that hosts...

    Have I left it all too late?

    I'm going to think positive in the short term at least.

    Have I left it all too late?

    To be honest I'm perfectly happy with my website as is and customers tell me my site is far better than my competitors. When I ask my customers how they found my business the answer, more often than not, is via a Google search - hence my concern about the slippery slide downwards. After what...

    Have I left it all too late?

    Thanks Phreaddee. I'll have a look into all of that. It's certainly going to be a learning curve. I guess this sort of thing is what keeps an old brain young. At least I may not be punished too much in the short term. That is a big relief. Thank you.

    Have I left it all too late?

    Perhaps in the short term I simply decrease the image sizes in the navigation to give myself room to increase the size of the text links in that section. Similarly increase the size of the Footer text links. Perhaps on this page http://www.heritageceilings.com.au/tin-ceilings-patterns.php...

    Have I left it all too late?

    Thanks Chris. I want to use the viewport code but I can't seem to get it right. Do you know what I need to do please. Does the code for all my images have to be amended too? If I have a chance to sort out my website over Easter that would be good. Anyone else's input on how to update my...

    Have I left it all too late?

    I realize my site is not mobile friendly. It seems I have to sort out this issue prior to 21st April. I’ve been looking around the internet at ways of doing this and to be honest my 63 year old brain is not absorbing a lot of what I read. I tried figuring out a bit of code to use in the head...
