    Great question, let us know if you resolve it. My only suggestion may be to put googlebot do not follows on the old urls if you can access it via ftp, then link up the new urls on the new site. Alternatively try 301redirects, but again u will need access. Hackit?jk!

    Subject: Redirect From Old Ecommerce Site To New Ecommerce Site
     
    I have an eCommerce site that was recently moved from one host to
    another. It was also moved to a completely different shopping cart
    therefore the structure and URL are different.
     
    The move took place 12 days ago but has not been indexed for the new
    pages. All searches reveal the old URL which now longer exist so I am
    getting very little traffic and a lot of 404's.
     
    I don't have access to the old host (hence the move) to create
    redirects.
     
    I was thinking maybe giving some new pages URL the same as the old
    database and redirecting to the new page but the old URL also include
    \item_84\page-url.htm
     
    Any ideas please? I'm open to any and all constructive ideas
     
    thanks

    You don't need access to the old host to set up a redirect. If you are
    using windows server you would use iis 7 URL rewrite module 2. Or
    programing it into the code behind or routing engine. If you using another
    server type than you would need to create what ever master file that server
    looks for.
     
    You wouldn't want your shopping cart pages indexed at all. They would be
    unique to each person.
     
    If you meant your product pages than either duplicating the old URL or
    using a 301 permanent redirect to the new URL is the best practice.

    I would recommend trying to match your previous urls as close to possible then create a new sitemap and submit that...thats all google really needs!

    using the .htaccess file redirect the old urls to the new urls.
     
    just google "htaccess redirect" and you will get the info you need
