Hello I have set up a shop in a subfolder http://www.bits4caravans.co.uk/shop As the site is in a sub folder I thought I should redirect traffic to that folder so I have a redirect from http://www.bits4caravans.co.uk to http://www.bits4caravans.co.uk/shop. My host wont let me use their seo tools as I have a redirect on there. I also read that redirects affect SEO and googles ranking. We have no traffic going to this site and I am wondering if this is the problem. Should I take off the redirect? if i do how do visitors get to the site if its in a sub folder (sorry this might be a dur question) Should I move the site to the root? if so are there any instructions. I am a bit stuck, I have never had a website in a subfolder as never needed to. Any help suggestions would be very very welcome. Niki
