Assuming you have PHP installed, the easiest thing is to save this as index.php and it will redirect the user to that page:

Code: Select all: <?php header("Location: http://www.jetmuffler.com/store/index.html"); ?>

You could do the same with an HTML page containing a meta refresh like this:

Code: Select all: <html> <head> <meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="0;URL=http://www.jetmuffler.com/store/index.html"> </head> <body> </body> </html>

or you could do it with a redirect in a .htaccess file as well (if you webserver supports .htaccess file directives).

Hi,

The above ideas work and there are other ways but since you are not "adding" a store to a site with other content, why not have your SS provider update the config file so ShopSite resolves to your domain root (home page)?

Pages in sub-directories rank lower in search engines than pages in your main directory. There is no reason you have to put SS in /store.

Best,
Mike
